How many of those things could be fixed by fine-tuning the list
settings, to prevent those happening, or to use filters/regexpes
better?

(I spent time looking at the actions I and moderators were taking, to
define some rules to reduce things from several a day to a couple a
month.)

Whilst I see Mark's replied already, I wonder if it would be better
use of building tools around Mailman 3, for when 3.1 is
released/ready.

This should be easier to maintain, as it would use the various APIs,
rather than scraping.
