If you wish for your message to be compatible with everyone's screen
and for reading comfort, you should set your wrapping and not leave
your text to window wrap which is what is happening to your text on my
screen.

This is established netiquette for years. You can have a look at RFC
1855.

Unlike on this list, many don't vocalise and just tolerate or ignore
bad formatting. That's all. They just adhere to rule 10 here:

As a moderator, Marck was simply doing his duties by asking you to do
something that will make your readers more comfortable. Formatting is
very important, as much as content. It's not a good thing to wait for
people to complain before thinking of doing things to prevent them
from having to.

I usually get comments from my peers on my formatting. They wish to
know how I manage to so neatly format my messages.

Go figure.
