Sorry, but I do not understand what you are referring to. Is bug-gnulib
is a mailing list? Is it any different from emacs-devel or gnu-emacs-help?

That way, some users may be able to create new threads at least, which
is apparently more comfortable for some users.

Also, Discourse allows per-thread subscription - a feature that is
absent from mailing lists. I heard multiple times from some users that
they do not want to subscribe to the mailing lists because of too much
traffic.

Note that Discourse-only threads are principally not any different from
different Discourse categories.
