See https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/mailing-list-faq/etiquette.html#idp44832888

which the above line vio0lates, but no spaces, what can I do :)

Says nothing about CC-ing. For me personally, I rather like getting cc'd because 
I read questions on a totally different system as I get too much email to my 
business/personal emails to add questions to the mix. If the current thinking is 
different from the above article please let me know. If you were cc'd on the 
netbsd thread that was indeed a lot of emails tossed to people that may not have 
wished to get them.
