I am such a user, and I want both.
It is true, though, that some users do not want both. Such users,
though, set up their filters differently--any mail *including* the list
address, not just delivered via the list, will go into the list's folder
for those users.

Except if a list reply is directly relevant to him, in which case he
hopes, or even asks, the list to explicitly CC him on any replies so
they come to his inbox as higher priority mail.
Actually, the user who wants these duplicate copies can make it work
that way even if the MLM filters the mail, too, by copying any list mail
explicitly addressed to them into their inbox.
But either way, it relies on list users using Reply All so that he gets
both the list copy and the direct copy. This requires the mail client to
offer that feature, and it also requires the list users to have the
culture of doing this, or responding to the user's request to do it.

Screen shot attached for your examination.
I don't know why it is different; maybe because my screen is smaller
than yours, or because the platform is different.
