Because, you condescending person [<--not my first choice of words],  
you don't bother to quote or cite where in the list archive you've  
witnessed this. You instead attempt to stand upon a pedestal of  
superiority, spewing your destructive commentary, instead of seeking  
to inform others of how folks have failed to make this distinction.

But, really, it's your tone of smug rightness, backed by no DATA <ha!
