But is this all really necessary? Can't these tools work without
assigning
special meaning to ordinary characters?
Well, you're asking in the wrong place. We're just end users here. If
you want the tools to behave differently, you need to get in touch with
their respective developers or support forums.
True, true.
I guess I was hoping for general comment, whether anyone had insights,
or agreed/disagreed with me :-)

One general comment coming right up. :)
The answer is always in man pages. [1] [2]
Maybe you can use "systemd-escape" utility to unescape messages before
sending them via mail.
Systemd is quite complex tool and just as every other tool you have to
learn how to use it.
[1] man systemd-escape
[2] man systemd.unit
