That's true, but because it takes up so much space, nobody would leave
it like that for long.  Clicking on the '-' next to "Subject"
collapses headers to a single line and the rest of the message is
scrollable.

Even Outlook in HTML mode still doesn't hide the bottom, so I fail to
see why it becomes invisible.  Perhaps such enquirers should be
directed to the footer, not the header.
