That the cereal should be poured before the milk.

Thought it was illegal the other way around. You probably think the toilet paper should fold over the back too. Don't you?

But cereral first is only sane and moral. We can't have a floating mound. And that's to say nothing of volumetric concerns.

You sprinkle some more cereal on the milk whenever you run out of cereal.

The whole point is to not have soggy cereal

Really depends on preference and cereal type

It's less of an argument between milk first vs second, but people that like soggy vs crunchy cereal.

The important thing is to not add too much cereal before you can eat it all. Adding in cereal last just helps make sure you don't.

My uncle's ex-wife would pour a bowl of frosted flakes, pour milk on it, put the bowl in the refrigerator, then eat it the next day.

I don't think that's why they got divorced, but I've always believed it was a contributing factor...

I eat my cereal dry by the handful then drink milk when my mouth gets too cottonie
