I've been using Evolution for quite some time now, and while it does
place the cursor at the top of the email by default, it is trivial to
scroll the reply down and type at the bottom. Like I'm doing right now.

Its a courtesy thing. Its the difference between holding the door for
that extra second, and letting it go immediately so it hits the person
behind you. Sure, you can argue that the door should be smart and auto
sense the presence of that second person and hold itself open, but is it
really that hard to just hold it open for an extra second?
