In that case, no one receives any monthly reminder regardless of any
list settings or member options.

Also note that if you did send reminders, it isn't one reminder per
subscription, it is one reminder per address regardless of how many
lists that address is subscribed to. Running this Mailman script pipe

bin/find_member . | grep 'found in:' | wc -l

will tell you how many reminders would be sent if everyone was sent one.
