Please don't top-post. Your replies belong following or interspersed
with properly trimmed quotes.

Though this is good practice during a conversation, I see no reason
to apply it rigidly when thanking someone for an explanation.

There's no reason for the person to quote the whole message to post a
thanks. He could trim all but a small slice to establish identity, then
correctly post under that.

He could have, but he chose not to, just as you could choose not
to be a bandwidth wasting public nuisance but instead choose to
be one.
