Perhaps this is the only one out of the forums you belong to but I could give you a list of armor forums, air forums, sports forums, political forums, video forums etc. that I have been on as a member and even staffer, since 2002 or so that it is the case ...however, I'm not here to debate that.
I guess it's simply the rule here and that is all I should have said. My bad.
Perhaps
but we don't have to dig up old bones.
Well, it took merely a few seconds for me to move your photos around as you specified above. In fact, I would be willing to wager it took less time for me to do that, than it took you to type this post. 
Honestly, it's not that big a deal...
Again, there are several other forums where this is standard practice but it isn't really relevant here. Each forum has their own set of rules and many differ from the next. We try to offer a place where people can enjoy modeling without flames, personal attacks and the like. Even if this means people going back to edit previous comments to reflect something they didn't like at a later date.
Happy modeling.
