Without disagreeing with your point: At some point Mailman ends up in the position of pushing technical standard adoption (such as the RFC 2369 List-* headers). No matter when the adoption decision is made someone will be unhappy. Plus addressing is not even close to new. I'm aware of no production MTAs that don't support plus-addressing. At what point should Mailman simply assume technical capability on the part of installation sites? Mailman already currently assumes a number of non-default things about the execution space, why not plus-addressing as well? When is the right time?
