Post length refers to the message inside the post, not the number of posts in
the thread. Notice how I snipped out all of the text I was not responding to
in this one? They had no direct bearing on what I want to say and if anyone
needs the reference, they have copies of the previous emails they can look at.

If someone were to reply to this to comment on something I am saying, they may
choose to leave the part I've left quoted as well as my new part because they
want to refer to both texts, or they may snip out your part that I quoted
because they only want to respond to what I said. If someone responds to that
person, they make the same decision.

It gets confusing to see quoted message after quoted message when some of it
can be trimmed without losing any pertinent information and all the extraneous
information is just that - extraneous. So it requires more effort to get to
the new part when you've already gotten the gist of the old part.

Only sometimes.
