I thought the diffstat is a nice overview as well. So there is at least
some value in a blurb-less cover letter. But I guess they are debatable.

I prefer --thread --no-chain-reply-to for more than 2 patches, so it
seems I sometimes only abuse the 0/X as a common anchor for 1..X/X. I'd
find it strange to use 1/X for that.

Hmm, so then you prefer no 0/X at all.
