Looking at it differently, the sublist archives may be incomplete, because superlist distributions are not stored in the sublist archives. (One person's feature is another's failing). Topics, super/sublists, and subscribing lists can all be reasonable, depending on the circumstances. In our limited experience, we've seen that people understand lists subscribed to other lists more easily than they understand super/sub lists, but lists subscribed to lists will cause more problems (some mentioned by Pete & Paul).
