I don’t really get that reasoning, because there is a notification about every comment and I read all the comments I get. Idk, maybe some people only read the top ones? Or I guess it might make sense if you go to another persons posts and starts reading the comments in there, and you assume the best ones are at the top and only wnt to read those.

Exactly, if I go read the comments section I will usually stop when I get to the flotsam and spam, I don't want to be buried under there.
