It's a problem for those who don't wish to be bothered

Ah! So perhaps that's why I still can't see some yEnc posts despite
buying the necessary software to decode it automatically in OE.
Most annoying (or words to that effect!). :-)

Software to decode yEnc is free.


But why should anyone have to get additional software, free or not,
just to decode a message posted in a non-standard format?


No one has to get it.

Haven't you ever used additional software to perform some function that
isn't included with Windows or OS X? For instance .pdf files need a
..pdf reader and neither Windows or Apple make one.
