I sure I'm just being a bit dense here, but I don't follow what your point is. Today, if the Lounge thread is the last thread posted to in the current forum, it will show up as the Last Active Thread. If we move it to a "sub-forum", and it is the last thread posted to, it will show up as the Last Active Thread. What's the difference?

(I know I'm missing something, I just don't know what it is.)
