I don't understand the thong...

Right so I’m assuming that the thong was invented for those days when a woman would like to wear figure hugging trousers but wants to avoid the inevitable visible panty line.
If that’s your thing then fair enough. Personally however many times a faithful thong fan tells me that ‘they are not as uncomfortable as they look’ as they limp off into the distance, I don’t think it’s really me but I digress.
What I really don’t understand is the latest fashion, where the top of the thong is arranged so it peeps out between the hipster jeans and the crop top.
So you have endured a considerable amount of discomfort to avoid anyone seeing your knickers through the fabric of your jeans only to arrange them so they appear over the top, in the cold light of day!
Am I missing something here?
