And adding "topic" tags to the subject line doesn't actually help the food-fight scenario, as those can break out even in [TOPIC] tagged threads. To tilt it the rest of the way from sub-optimal to outright pessimal is the fact that some subscribers may find a thread has gone off into the weeds, while others consider all the details interesting.

This is one of the reasons that I really prefer the dynamic topic detection. If messages in a thread no longer have the necessary key words which define a topic, Mailman doesn't consider it to be part of that topic. If a different thread veers into a topic and has the necessary key words which define the other topic, Mailman considers it to be part of that other topic.
