Is anybody else completely dissatisfied with this new forum?

I just noticed that threads in each section of the forum are now sorted by "Top Question" as default. Why are the designers of this forum so keen on pushing "Top Questions"? This is a forum, not an FAQ. Every single forum I have seen in my life sorts threads in sections based on last reply. Sorting by anything other than last reply will prevent new threads or new replies from being seen and potentially result in such threads going unanswered because they get lost in all the threads the forum considers as "Top" for whatever reason. The same goes for search results; default should always be "last reply".
