I don't follow many people on any social network and endeavour to read everything those people post. Like you, I want a straight sort of those items. However, I assume the majority of people follow more than they can read, so a huge effort goes in to sifting through the fire hose to provide a filtered taste.
Someone with a short following list can see the drama if they look at the huge list of replies that a popular account might get. So much cruft.
