If it's an actual comment tree and not a single level that also mixes in multiple conversations, then it works. Otherwise, it's like trying to use something like Facebook for a discussion platform. How would HN or reddit look like if every reply to a post also had a single level nested thread that actually consisted of multiple subthreads of conversations with everything at the same level of nesting? It would be much more difficult to follow different subtopics of interest since it would be impossible to filter out posts that aren't pertinent to it.
