Actually it does, as this post illustrates.
You actually proved not that it does, but that it doesn't.
Check the headers of Santosh's message. He added a follow-up to
comp.lang.c. No visible effect because it was posted here, but it
proves the point.

Read it again, starting with user923005's article. You may find that
reading it aloud will help you get the point more easily.

user923005 said that Google lacks an ability to set follow ups,

Right.

Santosh said it had the ability

No, he didn't. That's what he intended to say, but it's not what he
actually said.
