The "problem" I see with headings and paragraphs is that there is no "semantic boundaries/delimiters". One of the advantages of using a list is - IMHO - that we know where it starts and where it finishes.
Without getting too conceptual, though, I'd say that these boundaries are intrinsic to the actual structure. A heading refers to anything up until another heading of same or higher order appears in the markup.
Similar thoughts for the "it doesn't imply that it's a list, it doesn't have an order, etc" argument. The fact that the markup is parsed in a linear way implicitly gives order to elements present in the markup, and to a certain degree implies that something can be seen as a list (though this second part is certainly less strong, and using an actual UL or OL when appropriate is best...but what I'm saying is don't kill yourself over it, as otherwise staring too hard at things you may come to the conclusion that *everything* is a list and needs to be marked up as such, which can result in ludicrous extremes of markup)
