Trimming can be a PITA if you're using a crummy MUA How so? It merely requires the ability to navigate up and down by lines, and to select and delete text. I've used some very crummy MUAs, but the ability to trim quoted text has never been absent or difficult. Are there MUAs so crummy that this is a PITA, yet still used by any significant portion of email users?

You just can't do it on some mobile device mail clients. For instance Gmail's client on Android. It will just top-post and quote the whole mail for you AFAIK.
