The threading still stays, so your message gets buried inside the
original thread. This makes it difficult both for responder to find
your message and for you to get prompt help as it doesn't appear as a
new thread in many email clients. If you had right clicked the
fedora-list address and clicked "compose mail to", this would have
created a new thread.

I hope this clarifies Patrick's objection.
