Yes, let's not confuse upgraded lists with new lists.  Specifically,
if an upgraded list had the `moderated' value set to true, all members
will get their moderate flag turned on (since `moderated' goes away in
MM2.1, this is the only way to migrate the list's behavior).  If the
upgraded list had the `moderated' value set to false, members will not
get their moderate flag turned on.

I /think/ (hope ;) we're simply arguing about the default value for
the moderate flag for new members to newly created (i.e. only existed
under MM2.1) lists.
