I suspect it actually would fix the confusion. "dev" usually means development, not "core implementation development". People float past looking for dev help... python-dev. Python-list is a bit generic.

There is occasional confusion. More often, people think "there are the folks who could actually answer my question, and nobody on python-list answered, so I'll just ask there". We established to assume that they are confused instead of deliberately breaking convention, which is a polite way of pointing out that we really mean it.

IOW, I think it is all fine the way it is. Typically, somebody answers quickly. In this case, two people answered the same, which a) really gets the message through, and b) suggests that people are not too tired in actually typing in this message every now and then.

Of course, pointing the OP to a more specific focused forum (which is not always cython-users) is also kind.
