As of now i see the majority doesn't care, so it is up to me to decide
how I'm going to work with this.

I only comment on this part. The way I read this thread is not that the
majority doesn't care.

The majority deeply cares about keeping the list free of HTML cruft, much
more than they care about making it easier for people who sometimes (or
always) cannot send anything but HTML-mixed messages [*1*].

to be clear, I also want to keep HTML cruft off the list.

but if a message is being sent in a multipart format of both HTML and text, I think it is reasonable to strip out the HTML part and send the text part on to the list.
