I don't see how you can say that without knowing where the data was sourced from. AFAIK we don't know that.

If it was raw ACARS intercepted enroute from MS804 to the ground station, then I agree there would be lots of formatting stuff as per your AF447 example.

But if it's been dumped from Egyptair's (or ARINC/SITA's) ACARS processing application, I would expect it to look much as we are seeing, with all the extraneous stuff stripped out and only the error codes and messages displayed.
