The problem in this case is not bottom posting (or better: interleaved), rather the "bunch of irrelevant crap" let by the previous poster. Many use an email client feature that quotes all by default, and places the cusor at the end by default as well; which is fine in many cases. But then if they don't bother reviewing the post before sending, & "pruning" irrelevant parts, we get all that stupid stuff (and the new part at the end).
If the software would place the cursor on top...

MHO,
Denis
