Your answer makes perfect sense, except that I think that it occurs
because people have the discourtesy of leaving all of the other
replies appended when the bulk of them should be chopped, as I am
doing here.  It really is a sensible system if people exercise it
properly.  However, netiquette isn't anything they teach (yet) in
school, so everyone develops their own, often contradictory
approaches.
