Quite the contrary - The threading doesn't get broken even if the
subject line is changed because In-Reply-To is used. (See below the
output from this same thread in my mutt index which uses the default
mode - I've removed the index number and date fields to prevent the
display wrapping) - Binand's message changed the subject line, but it
still appears in the thread.
