barrel roll in 172

I competition or air combat, I'd agree. But if an airplane
can roll to 60 degree bank it can be held in the roll and it
will become inverted and then because of the inertia
continue back to upright. If you stop inverted you will
have problems because most engines will quit after a short
while, you might have some reduced aileron control and you
probably didn't hold forward elevator so you split S'd out
and roll control was returned. You just could not do a
competition grade hesitation roll.

If a Pitts S-2 starts a snap roll and the prop breaks off
the hub, does that mean a Pitts S-2 can't do a snap roll?
And if a Cessna 172 does a barrel roll, does that mean that
all Cessna 172 PILOTS are capable of doing barrel rolls?

Not necessarily, and certainly not because of the inertia.

If you stop inverted you will
have problems because most engines will quit after a short
while, you might have some reduced aileron control and you
probably didn't hold forward elevator so you split S'd out
and roll control was returned.

Or more likely, if done accidentally ("didn't hold forward elevator"),
the airplane broke because of overload.

You should cease to spread dangerous wisdom about things you don't
understand. (As well as cease to top post.)

I think Bill Gates like top posting, why should I change to
satisfy you?

Perhaps you don't know what you're talking about either?

A. Because it makes the thread hard to follow.
Q. Why is top posting frowned upon?

And what does Bill Gates have to do with that?

He's dyslexic.

Also, interleaved quoting (AND trimming quotes) is called netiquette -
the manners of Usenet. Transplanted to real life, "I think Bill Gates
like top posting, why should I change to satisfy you?" could become:

"I think the airlines like straight in approaches. Why should I enter
the pattern on a 45 to downwind just to satisfy you?"

"It's too much effort to wait three seconds to hold the door open for
the person following. Why should I wait three seconds just to satisfy
them?"

"Why should I say please and thank you? Some _insert rich person here_
gets by quite OK being extremely rude, so why should I change to satisfy
you?"

"Why should I move over to the right lane? Why should I leave my
comfortable rolling roadblock position just to satisfy you?"

Additionally, top posting costs people money. Top posters usually don't
trim their quoted material which can get quite long after a while. Those
reading Usenet when they are passing time in the airport, using their
cell phone, have to pay per kilobyte.

That's one place where I disagree - top posting saves money.

Although there may be a correlation between top posters and post
trimming, it is the post non-trimming that costs money (to others), not
the top posting. Actually, top posting saves money for those who, after
reading your comments, don't need to read what you were referring to
(because they remember it), and therefore don't need to download it KB
by KB. It's available however for those who need a reminder. For a
bottom posted message, one must download (often repeatededly) a message
one has already read (or at least parts of it) before getting to =any=
new stuff; that is wasteful of costly KB.

Sometimes top posting is good, sometimes bottom posting is good.

Usually interleaving is best. But there are never any absolutes.

News readers don't work like that unfortunately. When you select an
article, the reader downloads the *whole* article, not just the bits of
it you are reading. Therefore, a top post with an untrimmed set of
quotes (usually, when top posters reply to top posters, you get an
enormously long history of quoted material at the bottom). Unless the
top poster trims the quoted material (which almost none of them do), you
end up downloading their 5 line comment along with 300+ lines of quotes.

The only occasion where someone reading Usenet would only download a bit
of the article they are reading is if they are reading Usenet over an
ssh connection to a remote server. However, the latency over GPRS is so
bad, this is quite painful - so anyone reading Usenet using a mobile
device will almost certainly use a news reader on their mobile device
rather than an ssh connection to a remote system.

By the time that happens, the nose may well be pointing down. You'd
need to push, and you might not have enough elevator authority to keep
the nose on the horizon. I don't know; I never did it in a 172. I can
certainly imagine other planes that don't have enough authority to keep
it going.

If a Pitts S-2 starts a snap roll and the prop breaks off
the hub, does that mean a Pitts S-2 can't do a snap roll?

If it comes off every time, yes.
