I've had a few complaints that my earlier ARMM5 moderated posts
with "Also-Control: cancel" headers were not being handled correctly,
and it has been suggested that I use "Supersedes:" in place of
"Also-Control: cancel".

Is there any reason to prefer one over the other if the intent is to
replace one article with another?

*This* post carries the Supersedes header.  It behaves just like the
Also-Control header with C-news, at least so far as I can tell.
