Honestly, I don't think, that addresses (in my current case on top level, but as I understand, this could happen for every "user") should be treated as, sorry for uppercase, MEMBERS, when they are not expressly member of a list with a →distinct← address.
please let us discuss.
Mailman 3 is different from prior Mailman versions in that Mailman 3 has a concept of a person. The person is a user and a user has one or more email addresses one of which is preferred. See <https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/8-mile...>.
This corresponds more closely to real life than prior Mailman.
If a user is a member of a list with delivery enabled, mail from that list is sent to that user's preferred address.
Your own subject recognizes this. You say "Someone not a member of list is treated as member", but the 'Someone', i.e. the person, is a member of the list and should be treated as a member regardless of which of their email addresses they post from.
