As far as universal readability goes, you are correct. However, HTML mail can (whether it includes a text/plain part or not) have security implications that RFC-compliant (plain text only) mail does not. Some of the security problems include embedded active content and web bugs. Some clients let the user disable those "features," but in that case the mail becomes about as functional as text/plain and you might as well not waste the overhead for HTML.
