What's ironic about that? That's exactly how it's meant to be. A
message is _from_ its sender, and addressed to the receiver(s).
And those who respond get to decide whom they respond to. Whether
it's a private response or public, up to the person who responds.
Which part of that is surprising? I don't get it. It's just that
some people (most, today?) never have learned how it works.

If you want to reply to the list, then hit list reply, or reply
to all. Good user agents know how to do that. Unfortunately bad
user agents are so popular. Reason? See above. It's not just
users, these days even MUA authors appear to not be aware.
