I specifically limited my suggestion to the "list of X topics" lists, which rarely if ever have any useful content or organization and are not used by readers (in fact editors generally ignore them too, most have become woefully incomplete) *and* was only talking about removing the blue links, in the same way that one would remove entries from a wanted articles page.
I maintain around 70 of those. There are about 7000 lists on WP, I believe: so if I'm looking after 1%, that may not make much of an impression. Still, I reject this sort of generalisation, quite radically.
