That would depend on the newsletter. Some newsletter provide lots of value for those wanting to keep up to date with minimum effort.
It could also be a newsletter you need to monitor for work purposes.

No they care more that you don't reduce their deliverability rate and that is affected by email service providers deciding if you're not opening the email you're not interested, not reading and enjoying the content and therefore and don't want the content.
A lot of value could be lost. There are one or two newsletters I get by email which I read frequently and may contain extremely valuable information (i.e. could result in a significant sale). It could easily be a pretty significant loss to the company (and me) if they stopped sending them.
Although I will give you that the vast majority of auto-removals have been beneficial for me.
Seems like nothing of value would be lost?

Confirms that indeed nothing of value would be lost. It seems like a win-win situation, spam-letters you wouldn't want to read anyway eventually remove you off their spam list because they can't stalk you.
