Do you have data to back up this assertion?

Even if we wanted to do this, it is non-trivial. All confirmation
messages and their templates and translations would have to be changed
to remove references to confirmation by email.

The Defaults.py setting for DEFAULT_GENERIC_NONMEMBER_ACTION has been
Hold from the beginning.

Perhaps you are thinking of the respond_to_post_requests setting.
        

Do you object to any response at all, or just to responses that include
the original message text? If the former, then you must object to DSNs
from MTAs as well. If the latter, that is planned to be addressed in
Mailman 2.2.
