On Mailman lists it's a user selectable option.

I *don't want* it that way.  I choose not to receive duplicate copies.
There's nothing sinister about it.  I don't like getting two copies,
you obviously do - so go into configuration for the mailing list and
switch off the "Avoid duplicate copies" option.

Personally, I wish I could turn off users doing Reply-all to mailing
lists.  IF I had the energy I would write a filter to bounce messages
back to the sender if I'm explicitly in the recipient list on mailing
list messages.
