I put coffee in my milk for my regular home coffee.
An old habit started when I was young.
I have a strict color palette.
Don't get me wrong, I like a good espresso.

Because it's a polite way of saying "You are a rude arrogant t***; your question is no more important than anyone else's".
Most of 'em know damn well what they are doing, they just want their question to get priority. But so does everyone else, so it escalates and you get "bump wars" where all questions get bumped immediately they drop off the top of the list ... A polite reminder of netiquette forestalls that.

The bumps were the reason my "official" birthday at school was April 31st.
Worked for years ... bullies aren't generally that clever.

Making a trivial change to push a message to the top of the "latest items" queue.

Because it is, and there really is no need for it. We are all quite capable of reading normal font, normasl case text. It is similar to people telling us what we must, or must not, do when answering their question (naming no names).

Surprisingly, I haven't heard any complaints about 'top posting' for years!
15-20 years ago, the usenet/email Moral Mafia demanded that if you made a followup/reply to a post/letter, you retain complete copies of every earlier entry in the same thread, in chronological order, before adding your own stuff. In lengthy debates, you might have to wade through hundred of lines before finding anything new. The Mafia insisted that no other option was accepted, and they detested usenet/email editors that by default opened a space for your reply above the copy of the earlier debate.
For unexplainable reasons, top posting has become socially acceptable nowadays. Sort of like we used to do in the days of paper letters: We put our new letter in front, and enclosures (such as information from earlier letters) behind it. Maybe there were other reasons as well.
Sidetrack re. caps - the headgear:
It has been adopted in the Norwegian language, with the English plural form as the singular form. Like 'one caps, two capses' (en caps, to capser). That is the case for a number of English terms, such as a slip of cloth, today called a tie, is one 'slips' in Norwegian; most people do not know that the s is an English plural s. Same with (fruit) drops - the singular Norwegian form is 'et drops'.

Oh yeah! I had forgotten all about that.

Maybe because the software company invite RSVP to the company picnic only had 3 people back then. Now there are 10,000.

It uses more ink.
