If the entire body part is expressible in US-ASCII, then the case can be made
that using quoted-printable *anyhow* is a bug because it's using an
un-necessary encoding..

Except for RFC2045, section 6.7, which addresses this:
A
body which is
entirely US-ASCII may also be encoded in Quoted-Printable to ensure
the integrity of the data should the message pass through a
character-translating, and/or line-wrapping gateway.
In other words, "since we can't wrap at anyplace sane, we're worried that a
line pretending to be a paragraph will hit the 998-octet SMTP linelength
limit."
