The discussion was originally about your messages containing directives
to render all of your text in a small font.  Some readers found your
messages difficult to read for that reason, and we politely pointed it
out to you.

Everything after that has been you ranting against everyone who talks to
you, shifting the goalposts, and refusing to acknowledge that *any* of
your etiquette violations are your responsibility, or even a problem.

Your messages:

 * Are multipart text/html and text/plain.

 * Consistently use top-posting of your reply above the quoted text.

 * Contain directives to use small fonts that make reading them difficult
   for some people.

Two of these issues are breaches of list's established rules of etiquette,
and the third one is an unfortunate rudeness.  Yet, instead of taking
steps to correct any of them, you chose to shift the topic to message
sizes (which isn't the primary reason HTML email is frowned upon), and
then to compression efficiency (completely irrelevant, as email is
generally neither transmitted nor stored in a compressed form).

Anyway, this is pretty clearly a lost cause.  You're using gmail, which
is notoriously horrible, and it seems you are not willing to change your
behavior.  There's nothing more I can do to help you.
