Maybe.

Personally, I consider TBOT and TBBETA high volume (at least sometimes).

But I don't see how a scoring filter would help, like, keep the message
unread if the score is +50, mark the message half-read or what when it
is +20, and mark as read when its 0? :-) What is it good for?

My approach is an "ignore" filter that contains multiple conditions
(subjects like "imap", "gmail", "bayes" ie. stuff I don't care about and
have little to do with, certain senders, etc.), marking those messages
as read immediately.

The rest I consider valuable (you never know!), and if I stumble over a
thread thats not interesting I press CTRL+SHIFT+M and mark the entire
thread as read. So, I'd value a permanent (or "aging") thread-based
"ignore" filter higher (talking in "wish priority") than a scoring
system.
