Then, after N replies in a row, you have N subscriber emails in To:
header, which means that user's mail server has to send N identical
emails (strain on the server, risk of triggering spam filters), list
server has to filter email to subscribers who are in To: or Cc: (if
anything goes wrong, they get an email twice), and anyone who forwards
an email from the list unnecessarily exposes subscribers' email
addresses.

Any decent mail client has a “Reply to Sender” button — no idea why
GMail doesn't (or I didn't look hard enough).
