I agree, except about the degree of fragmentation.
I prefer to subscribe to as few lists as possible, to minimise admin overhead.

Specifics from the point of view of my personal usage:
Taking out winforms is for me a huge +.
Splitting C# and the CLR is less helpful, but OK.
And least helpful of all is splitting off the "advanced dotnet" whatever that is: to 
be honest, when I look at the archives of that list, some postings are of dubious 
"advanced-ness" while otoh many others would be better on the new CLR list (surely 
dotnet <> clr).  Instead of advanced dotnet, maybe have a data list (ADO, SQL Server, 
XML, etc) and the remainder of the threads on that list are mostly clr not dotnet imo. 

Another 2cents to add to the pile, although I guess it's probably a done deal anyway.

The people who win out on this are the people who don't want to hear anything about 
one of the topics and will not be subscribing to that topic. Those of use who love to 
partake in all the topics just need to do a little more work: subscribe to all lists, 
modify/make rules to filter them to a single folder.

My 2¢,
