Of course, that's only one side of the argument:

On lists like this, where everyone benefits by sharing information, it
seems pretty lame to hide behind purist arguments about Reply-To:
headers. The default behavior should be the one most useful to the
list. Think for a moment how many useful bits of information you've
missed because the default for this list it to make conversations
private.
