All subscriptions require opt-in (you send a request, receive a confirmation request and reply to it). So far, we tried different explanations but in the end the most plausible explanation, backed by what moderators see when helping people unsubscribe, is simply that some users are not very familiar with mailing lists of with the expected traffic (and often this is the only mailing list they subscribe to).

so according to this, people don't understand the idea of a "subscription" or "mailing list." alright. in addition, in their irritation, they fail to notice the instructions for cancelling.

No the problem is that the user is subscribed with a different email address. He is subscribed with [email protected] but tries to unsubscribe with [email protected]
he probably has his email forwarded.
