There's always that option, but the mailing list is already mirrored on other sites like Gmane too, and there's theoretically nothing stopping someone subscribing to the list and setting up their own public archive.
Gmane would theoretically stop mirroring if you stopped archiving, no? Of course, there is no way to ensure security, but you do at least have control over the official archive.
Not archiving would hamper the utility of the list to the project. Remember that this is a work list for a particular project; having old messages in an official, referable place is way too useful in practice. There is no reason I can see that is helpful to the project to stop archiving.
