I'm the one who last changed the subject of the aforemetioned thread
(which is now not this thread). It was my first time renaming a
thread, and I'm confused as to what I did wrong.
How is sending a new email any different than replying / changing
subject line?
Thanks,

Leaving the original subject or a contraction of it is good, unless you
start a totally new topic, and copy some bit of the original. Most
readers will thread the whole thing together anyway from info in the
email headers, so there is no harm in adding a hint as to where the
thread branches.
Lotus could do hierarchical discussion threads, but this is had no way
to surface branches and yet retain the origin.
Thanks
