Mailinglists? Have never had a need to work with them, so they’re in the, “don’t care” bucket so long as they work.

This is exactly a point.
Every single ML has a links in the footer to either the ML archives or
to the (un)-subscribe page.
But apparently from now on PG lists will not have it and if you want
to unsubscribe from the list you will need to open a header (why?)
find the appropriate link inside a bunch of non-useful information and
copy paste it into the mailer.
Can anyone explain why?
Why not do what other ML do - provide the links in the footer?
Thank you.
