Default Tripod Mount at *End* of PowerShot! Why?

IS should be turned off if the camera is on a

Why? (And, sincerely, why put the tripod mount at the end of the
camera and necessitate all the self-timing stuff?)

Also--since I've never had a camera with IS--what is the difference
between the menu choices "Continuous" and "Shooting Mode?"

Thank you.
