It wasn't in the slightest aggressive. Merely succinct (IMO).
Nor was it intended to be aggressive in any way.
I'm sorry if you took it that way.
The reason you get a personal copy, is in replying to list mail,
'reply-all' is the normal method, since many lists do not set
Reply-To=List (for very good reasons, as anyone who has sent a personal
response to an unintended audience of 1000s will know!).
