Bottom posting shows its downside only when you recently joined a mailing list, for example - you start receiving emails from threads that have been going for a long time and you have no idea what people are discussing. But if you're really interested, you can always use the archive.
Top posting doesn't solve this, unless you're implying top posting with no previous messages trimmed. If this is what you're implying you need to compare apples-to-apples and assume the bottom-posted emails will have no previous messages trimmed as well. If this is the case, the bottom posting still wins as it has the entire conversation history _in order_
