This is true. I (on Thunderbird 115) had to restore the subject line after
Thunderbird modified it. Do you know of a plugin or weird setting to make
it stop doing that? Web searches were fruitless.

I am using Tbird "115.11.0 (64-bit)" and, in checking, have found that
square brackets are apparently not molested in this version of Tbird.
In checking in my Inbox, for email from a mailing list that uses mailing
list name subject field prepending, I observed that the GnuCash mailing
list uses such prepending, and the subject line
"Re: [GNC] Problem with New Account Creation"
is apparently not molested by Tbird.
Similarly, with this (the Debian users) list,
"Re: [solved] Re: No login with Debian 12 ssh client, ssh-rsa key,
Debian 8 sshd"
and
"Re: [Solved]: What DE to replace GNOME with?"
appear to be unmolested by Tbird.
Whilst I regard Tbird after v102.x, as a pile of faecal matter, having
been downgraded from v102.x (the higher the version number, the greater
the degree of downgrading), the reported problem involving square
brackets in the subject field, is not apparent on this system, making me
wonder whether the reported problem, is an effect of either affected
users' settings, or, desktop environments, or, themes.
