Clients that rely on the subject to determine if it a new thread are broken.

In fact, if you looked the headers of your email you will see a line like this

message-id: <757360.51350.qm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

my client takes that line and make a reference to it like this.

references: <757360.51350.qm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

it will also create a new message-id: line.  something like this.

message-id: <d8269d910705181310k1f1416efq8ef7b77e793d77b6@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

if anybody replies to my message, the process is repeated.

Real, non-broken, email clients rely on the above lines to determine how messages belong to one
another.   Again, it has nothing to do with the subject line.  Look at the subject line of this message.
