No, it does not. Besides, are you trying to spin this to you looking out
for others? :-)

Address extensions are not GMail specific. Postfix, Sendmail, Qmail,
maildrop, Dovecot, Courier - the list goes on - all support extensions.
E-Mail existed long before Google Mail (which I don't use).

On the contrary, we should focus on filtering, and you indeed cannot
tell, and it is no hassle. You're making more baseless assumptions here.

There we go; it is about your preferences, not some greater good. Use
folders/labels to keep your Inbox clean, use List-Id and similar headers,
and it all works. Frankly, existing mailing lists conventions have proven
useful for decades, and I don't care about your Inbox in the greater
scheme of things. ;-)
