Why store the DST setting of the poster?
Because it is the correct way... Because, his posting time depends on his DST setting, not on mine...

That's the point, it doesn't matter
If someone has posted a message at 10am on Sept 1st, that would still be 10am Sept 1st regardless if I'm in DST now or not. Like I said, you can't change times in the past. 10am in the past is 10am... that time doesn't change when you set DST now or not.
PS: get some sleep first

No, it means that everybody copied from eachother without thinking because they cba to think about it and it was already late
