why bother? that makes no sense whatsoever - just put them on top, they will clean them in situ and then fill them

Reasons I do this:
- Gives the bees a nutritional boost when there still isn't much forage around (instead of syrup/fondant).
- Keeps the heat where the bees are (up top).
- Multiple supers will be cleaned up so can be removed early on until ready to be added again on top.
