The other nefarious action that MSFT could take is to refuse to accept

Call the party you are mailing and inform them that there is a problem at 
their end ;-O

"There is no problem at our end - we use Microsoft.  If you can't make
your email work, we'll just have to find another vendor."

You also have the freedom to find another client. If it's that much of a
financial differnce then commercial pressures will have their way. There
is no way that M$ is going to get enough of the world onto C-ID that they
can ignore mails which do not use it. They tried it with Blackbird, with
Outlook, and with a dozen other things. They do not control
infrastructure.
