Actually, this is simply the *full* definition of 'bottom-posting', and
is indeed the 'one true way'. ;)

'Bottom-posting'+'blindly quoting the entire message' - ie, without
trimming/deleting the irrelevant/unnecessary text leaving only the text
relevant to maintain context of the reply - is far worse than
'top-posting'+'blindly quoting entire message'.
