If the intent is that the list is specific to IAB activities (as I said in my response, that wasn't the intent in the past), then you all should update the description. Personally, I think it's a handy list to have for purely technical discussions as opposed to all the non-technical discussions on the main IETF discussion list.

Note that ietf.org hosts a number of mailing lists that are not
"official" IETF activities. You can find a list of all IETF
mailing lists at https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo. The
main reason we have so many mailing lists is to group things which
are like and separate things which are not like, to keep discussions
manageable. architecture-discuss exists to support the activities of
the IAB. Presumably a discussion of homenet architecture would
not be welcome on architecture-discuss.
It seems to me that it makes more sense to request a new list for the
discussions that you'd like to have than to repurpose an existing list
over the objections of the list owners/managers/SAAs.
