I would gladly welcome a PEP 572-less development mailing-list.

+1.

Speaking as a lurker with little interest in the particular topic, PEP 572 has almost driven me to unsubscribe. It's not the massive number of posts that is annoying, but the fact that seemingly (perhaps literally?) scores of separate threads have been created for it. A single thread, or a small number of threads, are easily muted, but when multiple new threads are created seemingly daily or weekly for months on end, trying to gain control of my inbox feels like an endless game of Whac-A-Mole [1] with no prizes, and that's not a good thing. 

[1] Being a global list, here's a link for anyone not familiar with the game: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whac-A-Mole
