I'd say it was set up this way because years ago, the creators/maintainers figured that if someone wanted to include the list in the reply (maybe they are sending a non-list appropriate joke or OT post) then that person should be able to click REPLY-ALL and get the list in the response. But that's just my guess.. I am on a number of lists that require you to click REPLY-ALL if you want the list to get the response. It just depends on the thought process of the admins at the time.
