Depends on your definition of maintainer ...

To me, it means "should be notified of anything maintenance-related". By
that definition the list is a maintainer. And what do you do if you
don't have a person designated as maintainer? Do you send everything to
/dev/null?

A list is for general discussion, advice, whatever. Those two
definitions are not mutually exclusive, and therefore the list email
address may need to be identified as both/and, hence the two entries.
