You are right from the developers point of view. But if there is a user
who is just having some questions then he might hasitate of signing up
to a developers list.

At a user list advanced users who are no JOSM developers (like me) can
help without disturbing the developers. The developers do not even have
to sign up to the users list because the advanced users can surely
forward serious issues to the developers list or help other users filing
a bug at trac.

I think that especially with an increasing number of users this might be
a good thing for both the developers and the users.
