I would generally agree, but sometimes there are 2 or 3 leaf messages in a 
discussion on the same point, and if you reply all 2 or 3 with one message you 
can (a) post just once instead of further splaying the tree and (b get a few 
closely related or even identical remark togther for comparison and response.

So it is not insane. And most threading clients will associate the reply with 
at least one of the sources, and threading can continue.
