Seriously: stop picking random out of context fragments out of peoples' comments and building strawmen out of them just for the sake of being disagreeable.
Sometimes people are replying for the sake of everyone else reading, rather than just the specific comment to which their words are anchored. This is how conversations work in person, too, where a small fragment of one point can lead to a tangent just based on that fragment.

I know, and in the wrong context that can be pretty annoying as well.
