A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.

Yeah, I forgot about xmodmap :|
Digging around the manpages helped.
Now I have a .Xmodmap with the following:
keysym KP_Prior = Prior
keysym KP_Next = Next
keysym KP_Insert = Insert
keysym KP_Delete = Delete
keysym KP_Home = Home
keysym KP_End = End
keysym KP_Up = Up
keysym KP_Down = Down
keysym KP_Left = Left
keysym KP_Right = Right
keysym KP_Begin = Begin
Problem solved!
