That'd get really interesting when posting code examples. Why on Earth 
would you leap forwards and back through a top post to find anything? 
You start reading at the top and read until you run into the quoted 
text. You only read the quoted text if you're curious to see which 
specific message this message was in reply to. Top-posting should 
require you to scroll your screen less. I think if I started posting 
bottom-top text as you say you like better than top-posting then I'd 
rightly be killed by the list Gods.
