Partly a UX problem. In slack and discord, the default is to send unstructured message to the whole chat - with a big text box and send button at the bottom. The reply-to-break-out-a-thread option is more obscure.
This could be solved by simple UX rearrangement and emphasis. Creating a new thread could have some more friction, for instance, by requiring a title or simply having a button to open the text box.
