Excellent description. I can see how some novice listers might do this without even knowing why it's not allowed.

An example would be if I sent this email to the jaws-users, jaws-scripting, and screen-reader-users lists at the same time by putting all their addresses in the to field, or putting two of the addresses in the cc field. If you want to crosspost, fine, just do it by sending a separate email to each list. Note that some of the lists in my example are fictional. hth Cheers!
