Let's not make the fantastically naive mistake of assuming this userbase is sufficiently large to comprise a statistical universe, much less begin throwing pompous shit about "the user" into this discussion. You have absolutely no proof that such servers are "the most popular" and no reason to claim shitty server-specific behavior is any reason to start crapping all over things defined in an actual RFC. Finally, ii is not necessarily even something "the user" would ever actually see, since there are tons of front-ends to this. This is connection software. Let it manager connections. Nickserv is post-connection spam involving PRIVMSG. Make no mistake.
