It wastes storage space and bandwidth.  Everyone's.  

I don't know the number of members on this list, but you're being
wasteful on a large scale, it's not just an email between you and one or
two people talking on this thread.  

The same applies to the list server - you're wasting its storage space,
and its bandwidth with all the postings it sends out to each member.
Being wasteful to a project isn't good for its finances.

And as for "why not?"  Because you're not meant to do that.

Behave like an ass, get treated like one, and miss out on the help from
those who might have been able to help you with whatever problem you're
dealing with, but who don't put up with nuisance people.

Contrary to common modern behaviour, being an ass is not something
people are supposed to do.  It's bad behaviour.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
