Agreed -- torvalds/linux may attract a lot of spam, but the LKML also
does. Any sufficiently "famous" repo/service/ML will, after all.

Also agreed -- it is particularly useful to teach newcomers and to
save time for maintainers having to explain things. Even if a
maintainer has a set of email templates for the usual things, it takes
time vs. not even having to read the email.
