My email disallows images and javascript/html. I have yet to suffer for this. If anything it’s like the Adblock of email. And I’m not one of those “block all javascript on the Web” people.

Same (including that I am not one of those people who block JavaScript on the web; hell: I don't even use an ad blocker), though a few times a year I do run into a service that both explicitly provides a text/plain segment (so the mechanism that would just try to give me the text from the html segment isn't used) that is useless (missing links, doesn't have a text form of some code, etc.) and I have to open the code of the email to find the link; this is easily, however, solved in the email client and does not require activating either images or javascript/html.

  I didn’t even realize JavaScript in email was a possible thing until I opened this thread, and still don’t understand the use case for it.

    It's not. Javascript is in the attachment to the email, like VBA is in an attached Excel file in an email.
