The main thing I love about twitter is the 140 character limit. It's an elevator pitch. Many times, when I am trying to communicate an idea, I put them in 140 character chucks to better refine the idea. Especially in this Trump era where people are confused by throwing too many words that do not many any sense. Concise - that is the need and twitter is concise.
Twitter should stop comparing itself to facebook and compare more to wikipedia. Twitter is an idea sharing platform. Journalist can use it to get their articles to more audience where the gist of what the article is about is given.
Let's not forget the role twitter played in Arab Spring.
140char should be ONLY for text. Links & embedded media should be excluded from that limit.
