If you join to both ML, you get all mails as before. And if you join to LKML only, you can reject mails from DUL. Of course you can join to LKML-DUL only if you have strange curiosity. Reply address from LMKL-DUL should be carefully considered not to isolate useful discussion started from a DUL mail. Using these two ML, you have a right for selection, not by given LKML management policy.
