This is not a shot about preferences that others may have about this topic, just my opinion.
In general, I've found that this forum setup is one of the easier ones for me to understand. I'm usually confused by pictures of files and folders that seem to be beside, above and below messages in other forums, and often can't navigate for beans.
I think it is the linear nature of these threads (the original post followed by responses in the order received) that makes it easy for me. If there was a lot of branching within threads (including folders and/or subfolders), I know that would confuse me (well, it has at other places). Could be because I grew up with Big Chief tablets and #2 pencils, so I don't think in files and folders, but in lists.
I know....duh! But, there it is.
