Could someone describe a plausible scenario in which this hack is more
useful than a simple whitelist of senders for whom you skip DMARC
checks?

Spammers can pretend to be lists, so you can't blindly trust that anything
with a List-ID or whatever is a list, and you need the whitelist anyway.
On the other hand, based on about 30 years of experience with mailing lists,
any list worth whitelisting is run well enough that more complicated checks
add nothing.
