Also, I can see good reasoning in the simple concept: when I received

The message came *via* the list. Not *from* it.


Therein likes the problem. The list took delivery of a message from the
author and then re-posted.  A mailing list is not a mail relay.  It
legally can make any change it wants to the message, because formally it
is posting a new message.

So it SHOULD have a new Message-ID: header, right?


That's one of the points of debate. Again, there are reasonable arguments for an against.

RFC 5598 extensively considers the question of changing the Message-ID:

<snip>

For that
   reason, the Message-ID: is not intended to be used for any function
   that has security implications.


Hmmm... of course Message-ID: is one of the fields Yahoo is including in its DKIM signature.
