What I do think is "pandering to the manufacturers"
is using inline styles because they are too lazy to parse styles found
in the <head> region, repeating styles in inner elements because they
are too lazy to implement inheritance properly, and so on.

There is also the issue that you are forced to send bloated messages (slowing the reception) due to their failure to follow standards. A message that uses header styles is much smaller than the same message with in-line styling. It is also harder to generate the message text itself since you have to locate where each style is needed and add a copy of the style parm there.
