I don't see that Gmail does anything wrong. It starts you off at the
top of the email, yes — this lets you select what quoted material you
wish to keep, because Gmail can't possibly know what you want to
respond to. Perhaps Gmail could start you off at the bottom of the
email, or not quote anything by default and just present you with a
blank slate, but either of these ends up requiring more effort than
the default behaviour.

This is a purely a matter of netiquette, and can't be blamed on the application.
