The early bird gets the worm (the points). Early comments get higher visibility. It disincentives reading the article first. A post already has 200+ comments? Don't even bother adding a top-level comment, nobody will see it.

People read the first comment threads and engage with them the most. It’s obvious when you can see one comment taking up the entire first page with all its replies.
