You may just be running into unlucky compression. If you change the compression, you may get lucky.
I agree this could be a solution but it is not acceptable to me. This is what I called playing Russian Roulette with my attachments. It's like having an unreliable car. Sure, you can pull over and if you know what you are doing tinker around and fix it but I want a car that just works. I want email that just works. I'm tinkering around with a bunch of other things; I don't want to add another level of tinkering to my workload.

> some stupid email client that attempts to auto-execute tarballs.

Unfortunately a lot of people still use Outlook at home because
they have it at work. At my last day job some were forced to use
Outlook on MacOS because of the way PHBs slung attachments about.
