The way this list is set up seems to be considered the "correct" way, e.g.:
https://www.google.com/search?q=%22reply+to+list%22
http://david.woodhou.se/reply-to-list.html
http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html
Lists set up for "reply" to go to the list make it very difficult if you
need to reply individually to the sender for any reason. It's also
unexpected behaviour for the "private" reply button to send a public reply.
This list sets List-Post and other headers (for which the spec is about
16 years old), so the "Reply to List" feature of many email clients
works correctly.
This way, people can easily choose who their reply goes to - individual
(Reply), list (Reply to List) or both (Reply to All).
I do occasionally get caught out by it as well, since this is different
from other (misconfigured) mailing lists. It would be less confusing if
those other lists got this right, but just because they get it wrong
doesn't mean this one should follow!
But we digress...

And yes: I've also been hit by misconfigured reply!
I think it's working as intended:
- "Reply" goes to the original sender
- "Reply to List" goes to the mailing list
- "Reply All" goes to sender and other recipients
