Because it's annoying to receive duplicated emails.

No, not everybody is reading all mails, but we hope that the thread is
kept, when people reply or that at least the subject line is kept, so
there's no need to read all threads, to realise replies to threads we
want to read.

Claws has two features to inform us, by just taking a look at the
folders, a little red dot and an exclamation mark in in parentheses.

I don't sort by thread, I sort by date and Claws anyway informs me
about threads I follow.

Improve your workflow ;)! I guess there's a reason that we use MUAs ;).
