To clarify, "consistently reported" refers only to _me_! You are
perfectly entitled to your opinion, but incorrect conclusion is made;
gmail has not given me an exclusive, customised web interface. :)

I have never used labs, did not know of its existence for gmail until now.

It is your right (not) to care; I am only reporting my personal
observations of LO mailing lists and comparing behaviour with other
mailing lists subscribed to.

I have made a suggestion; if you are not interested/curious how other
mailing list management software operates, that is entirely your
decision. As I have said, I am reporting my observations and
comparison. If no LO programmers care, OK, their opinion. I can
continue replying as I do now: copy message to my favourite text
editor, edit content and send.

I don't know the precise definitions of "single message" and "single
textbody", but it seems to me that gmail receives the digest-mode
message as a single message and when the 'reply' hyperlink is
activated, the reply _does_ consist of a single text body. At this
point, LO mailing list content is truncated (i.e. lost) after the list
of messages at the top of each digest-mode. In another mailing list
such as for R, the entire digest-message is shown, except when the
quantity is too large (don't know what the limit is), in which case
the message is 'clipped' and the entire message must be viewed in a
new, separate page.

You have refused to replicate the test scenario, so reproduction is unlikely.

Must be the only one using digest-mode...

This is not completely correct
