It's a total waste of time having to re-read all the unnecessary crap many times just to get to a one sentence reply.
IFF people were to be considerate and delete/trim/remove all of the irrelevant parts of the quoted material, then the placement of the reply would not matter. We are arguing over which is the best way to work around refusal to trim by lazy inconsiderate people.
That is _exactly_ why quotes should be trimmed for relevance.
