Since we don't usually "just" set anyone to NOPOST (but we do otherwise have REVIEW by default), then the subscriber options of:

NOMAIL and NOPOST
or
MAIL and NOPOST (usually the result of subscriber trying to reset themselves)

are our implicit indicators of the bouncing or vacation-style reasons for these settings.

By NOT using QUIET, the co-owners are also auto-informed of each others actions.

And of course, YMMV
