Me too. Although I had left it on by default for a long time.

This is why I have finally switched it off permanently.

Me?  I  just  make the necessary changes, ignoring the distortion of the
formatting. When I'm done, I hit Alt+L once and voila, text is reflowed.
It  seems  more  efficient to me because in your case you have to toggle
the  autoformat on and then off. I just hit Alt+L once. The intermittent
Alt+L'ing  is  the price that I am willingly paying to be able to reflow
quoted text.

See above .... isn't it just great? :-)

Indeed. :-)

Hehehe. Yes, I realize this.
