You are going to be surprised that I in fact agree with you but I've
been on this long enough to get criticized for both situation.  You just
happen to be on the keep it short list, there are those who say that if
the previous replies are not included then they have to read the thread
to keep up.  Therefore you can't win for losing.  In general, I believe
in top post for that reason, but if you top post eventually someone will
critize so it's best that you observe the post and see what the trend
is.  I just noticed your name appearing.  My reply was very short and
was in general SOP for this list.
