I'm so good that I can quote a post yet to be posted.

It's not a technical error. It was my fault, a user error, if you will. While the original poster was replying to my post, I deleted it with the intention to add a link to substantiate the Pakistan claim and re-post it again (instead of just editing and keeping the post with a post-edited notion). In the meantime, the original poster replied, but my deletion of the original post meant that his reply preceded in sequence the post to which his reply was responsive.
Mea culpa. Nothing wrong with FlyerTalk.

On page 3 of this thread see my post #40 which actually quotes SAT's #41 in order as it's shown in the thread, though of course he made his post before I did and I was reponding while he was still editting.

On this one topic we can agree as I've seen it happen when SAT & I are busily responding to each other in OMNI/PR. It's a quirk of the software.

Guys, again, I don't think this is a software bug, but rather, user error by yours truly in that I deleted, revised, and re-posted the material at issue rather than properly using the edit my post function. The sequencing got out of order only because of a fortuity that the reply by the_happiness_store occurred in the intervening moments.
