Because so many so called managers - or whom do you have in mind when
speaking about business world? - are helpless without their secretary.
And having to write something by their own and not by dictating it the
secretary they are too lame to strip down things they reply to, order
arguments and do else what makes it comfortable and custom for western
culture reading people: reading from top to bottom.

I find it annoying to have top-posts and then have to scroll from top to
bottom, back up to middle and so forth, to be able to follow a
discussion thread - if it is even possible.
