You're right.  It shows that I'm used to pipermail's deficiencies, and
don't notice them as much as I used to do.

However, MM3 seems to be doing the exact same thing that pipermail does
when it comes to capping the tree view indentation to a certain limit.

If you scroll down the following page enough (or you can search for
example the sentence "I don't believe anyone outside of Firefox
enthusiasts and the package maintainer were even aware there was an
issue to discuss"), you'll see some replies displayed at the same
indentation level as the message they reply to:
