Why do you reply to the canceled posting?

Your logic is flawed.  “normally” is a weasel word.  Much like with other 
programming languages, there are applications of PHP that have nothing to do 
with the client-server architecture.  Apparently you do not know them.  Rest 
assured that your numbers are from *thin air*.  OTOH, I did not expect a 
reasonable, well-founded argument to begin with “Clearly”, as pointed out in 
the posting that superseded the one you replied to.

There is no standard about it; there is a recommendation (RFC 1855).  Like 
several other people on Usenet, I choose to interpret it differently, and to 
write my signature above the signature delimiter when I have something else 
in my (randomly chosen) .sig that exceeds the recommended limit of four 
lines.

So you need your newsreader to think for you?
