That strikes me as very long winded, and so not conducive to a succinct email exchange.
This style of communication is indeed quite longwinded and can be rather cumbersome. It also creates somewhat of a mess in mailinglist archives, and makes it far more difficult to find the exact point. It can also come across as condescending, which can make it counterproductive, and not only not worth the trouble, but actively harmful. There are definitely cases where this style isn't a good idea. I should try to keep that in mind more often.
Thanks for the demonstration.

Sorry, tl;dr
