One does not reply to a single person in Network News, a 1:n (or m:n) 
communications medium; one addresses quoted parts of postings to be read by 
all subscribers of the newsgroup.

It is possible and appropriate to address quoted parts of different postings 
in one follow-up to avoid cluttering up the (sub)thread.  When in the same 
subthread, the attribution lines and associated quotation marks show the 
quotation levels, i.e. who has made the statement that is being addressed in 
the follow-up.

I think I have used it correctly, at least as correctly as you have.

BTW, claiming arrogance (“uppity”) of someone whom you disagree with is so 
common a fallacy that it has become a “Usenet Law” in the German-speaking 
part of Usenet, called “Roesen’s Law”: <http://www.bruhaha.de/laws.html>
