Because reply-to munging in lists is 'bad'.
http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html describes why it is bad.
Individuals can of course choose to use the list as their reply-to if
they want to.
Also, I'm sure the list subscribers do not want any autoresponders
responding to the list!

You know, on that topic, why doesn't this list have the switch set so it
has
it's own address in the reply-to field. That would stop the e-mail from
going to just 1 person most of the time.
