Comment (by gmariani405):

 I agree that the IP would only be valuable in a power-user scenario and
 it's by no means fool-proof. But SOMETHING should be available to help
 prove the authenticity of the email.

 "This IP address is just useless," - A bit of an overstatement there. If
 ANY user (even if just a power-user) is able to avoid a ransomware attack
 by this information proves it has some value.
