Anyway, the worst case scenario is that users hit one of the two buttons

If you're going to do that, why do you need two buttons?
I'm not going to do that - it's a worst case scenario. I don't believe it's
necessary with my users. However, some people have such low opinion of
their users that they might well wish to do that.
The point is that if your users have a mail client with two buttons, it's
capable of making a distinction that will be useful to some admins. Other
admins my chose not to make use of the distinction, but if you extinguish
the information before it reaches the admin, then it's impossible to
reconstruct it.
