OK - so tell me *one* valid reason why one needs to reply to the list 
*and* to the person which wrote trhe last message - *one* VALID reason!

and now i tell you resons NOT to do:

* the RCPT get duplicate mails
* the off-list copy don't contain list-headers
* so that copy has no working reply-to-list button in a sane client
* that copy is typically faster than the list messages
* sane servers will silent drop the later arriving duplicate
* so reply to that message breaks THREADING for everyone
* it breaks threading in list-archives

so YES anybody who is not capable to use a mail client is not a genius - 
PERIOD
