Because when I did not have the original post, I'd have to read you post
as an outline of the ongoing discussion. Which means I'd have to scroll
down the post (possibly scroll down for that again if it's a longer text),
scroll a little bit up, read down again, and repeat that untill I finally
know what 'any of that' in you reply really stands for.
The only real point you made I agree with is overquoting, which is
terribly annoying. It is however not a reason to toppost. People should
trim (possibly summarize) their quotes, but still keep a single post
readable as a logical (part of a) conversation.
