I am not sure exactly what you mean by this. Do you mean adding a '>' at
the beginning of each line and replying in place? If so then replying to a
300+ line missive is a lot of hand editing. It is especially nasty when
lines have to be reflowed, new line breaks added and old '>>>>>' characters
have to be removed.
If we are not limited to plain text then we could use different font colors.
This is actually a easier to read system and does not require that we reflow
lines as we add more and more '>' characters to the front of each line.
