This is why I made the comment that "per thread" limits really need to
be combined with some form of over-all limit or new-thread limit to
minimize the ability to "game" the system.
Yes we can put limit on number of new threads one can start, but then we
will have to decide how much....Won't it depend on type of list ? Should
we be leaving it for list-admin to decide?

Most definitely, just as I hope the "per thread" limits are something
the list-admin can control, as again, that is something very much list
dependent. And again, those limits would be time rate based, not an
absolute value.
