putting the post button at the top means that a user has to reach to access it. The drafts button is in an area that is usable without reaching. The post button will be used more than the drafts button (every post will be finished with the post button, but not every post will be started with a draft), so it would make more sense to swap the draft and post buttons to make posting more user friendly

I don't plan to move the Post button to the toolbar; having it in the right nav bar position is a standard iOS convention.

Actually, it's not.

Reddit has the post button where I am suggesting. Apple's messages app has the post button in the text entry line. Apple's mail app has a send icon in the header area of the email being sent.

Apple's own Best Practices specifically says:

Enable interactions that support the way people usually hold their device. For example, it tends to be easier and more comfortable for people to reach a control when it’s located in the middle or bottom area of the display, so it’s especially important let people swipe to navigate back or initiate actions in a list row.
