The more resources the better, all else being equal.
It's not obvious that this have to be either/or though.
If eg you ran a list with well defined guidelines that had 
substantial technical value, tighter admin control on  what 
was acceptable material and a different ethos to PIClist, 
people who valued both could belong to both at little cost 
to either group - in fact hopefully overall synergy for both 
lists.
