If it was so obvious to us by experience we ;-) wouldn't be on the list,
having unsubscribed. So the truth is we don't really know if it is easy or
hard. But it is Mailman, so it is really easy, and let us not project
difficulties where perhaps laziness is more to blame.
The wording down below can be modified as suggested, to make it clear that
the linked page directly enables both subscribing and unsubscribing, for
those who are clearly too lazy to click to find precisely that.

Requesting all those who want to unsubscribe to do so themselves via the
link at the bottom of each email from the list and STOP sending such
requests to the entire list.
I feel this is more of a usability problem than people being lazy, going by
the number of such mails. Maybe a modified footer might help?

Lets admit it, the listinfo page is badly laid out and it takes a bit of
time to figure out how to unsubscribe. Whats obvious from experience for us
may not be so for others.
