I'm not completely selfless either. For me, sorting by new makes me interact with people more. No one will notice the 973rd comment under an already popular post. The first comment will be noticed at least by OP, even if it's the only comment under a barely noticed post. It's quite frustrating for me to see a question in popular and be like "I could help this guy but I'm sure it's already been taken care of"
