about half of every patch series that gets sent to me on lkml is
unreadable in my email client due to the default threading that
git-send-email does. It looks like this:

Do what I do and flame the sender and have them repost.

I simply won't even attempt to read crap send like that.

What, precisely, is unreadable or crappy about that? I suppose the
chaining was introduced to keep some order to the patches.
