To properly serve it's purpose, $alternates must only look at To and Cc to recognize mail directed to you. If it would recognize every mail you get, it would be useless. It might be good in the context of $reverse_name to look at other headers, but that would probably require many changes to the mutt code. Just use send-hooks to set your From: address for mailing lists, this works.
