Yes but he's obviously smoking crack. 

By omitting the Reply-To: header you give the author the chance to see
all replies to his mail and you err on the side of privacy. By emitting
it you deprive the author of that chance and force him to pick out
replies in the list itself because they aren't sent directly, and you
err on the side of publicity.
