why cant all emc posts have emc at the beginning of the subject

That would work, but requires voluntarism from just the opposite folks,
than are being annoyed by a barnburner. Still, I've seen that used
effectively to shield tangential stuff from the general listener.
One minute problem, BTW, with making use of this "diplomacy" step, is
that the current prefix [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] is sooooo bloody long to begin
with, that adding another further filtering suffix like EMC: just makes
it even HARDER to read the subject lines in any reasonable length field.
Now that the group's at "cruise altitude", how hard would it be,
ObieWan, to shorten that some? Maybe to "CNC+" or something short.
