If you are going to send potentially offensive, libellous or embarrassing
emails, you should check carefully where you are sending them, instead of
relying on a setting on a remote server that can be changed, without
notice, at the admin's whim.

Making the default action to be a reply to the list makes sense for a list
such as this one. For other lists, that may not be the case. This is not a
black and white issue, the best approach depends on the circumstances.
