I'm not entirely convinced that this is indeed the case.  I've just
crafted some messages and as far as I can see only if there is a
List-Post: header is the Reply-to-list active in any way - it certainly
isn't active if there is a List-Help: header only.  I even just
installed F13 into a virtual machine to check that it isn't a relative
new feature.

The only time I use Reply-to-all on list messages rather than
Reply-to-list is when there are multiple lists involved - obviously any
particular message only has one List-Post: header, so in order to send a
message to multiple lists I need to use Reply-all.  I also make sure I
edit out any superfluous CC: entries.
