Why avoid that topic? You personally are not among the worst offenders,

... I was referring to the
practice of cutting and pasting the context -- attaching response B to
statement A to make the speaker appear to have said something entirely
different from what was actually said.

I didn't see that, and can't say what the intent is; but there is a lot
of very careless quoting going on. I don't see any point in trying to
read a post with five or fifteen nested quotes, with a two sentence
reply at the very bottom.
