IMHO one of the most overlooked features is that it's the best eXplainable AI out there IMHO. Spam scores are easily understandable and correctable. You can even build quite digestible nomograms [1] . Still everyone is using decision trees as XAI example while in my experience they are very unstable in quite indigestible after a depth of 3. I also believe Naïve Bayes is quite undervalued. What many people however ignore is that you also need to estimate a density function for continuous variables, which like with many kernel based methods might the rather interesting and sometimes not so naïve part.
