While your instructions to use Reply-All is correct, your assertion that 
the lack of a Reply-To header is uncommon is merely your opinion, and in 
my experience is simply not true of the other lists I use regularly. 
There are very good arguments that Reply-To is not appropriate for lists 
to use (Mail-Followup-To was the suggested replacement but hardly any 
mail clients support it):

I don't want to get into a fight over it, so suffice it to say that this 
list's policy is that Reply's go to the the original poster and 
Reply-All will include the list as well.
