not.

OK. It's Monday, and I'm dense.  If you're wrapping your lines so each
is <80, what's the point of format=flowed?  Just so an MUA can take ONE
pre-flowed paragraph and re-write it as ANOTHER one?

I thought the point of format=flowed was so that MUAs that liked to send
one VERY long line per paragraph could do so....
