What's the difference between your suggestion & the 'new' feature?

  The prime difference is that the proposed feature would rate the stories according to HN algorithm (taking threshold into account) not chronological order as 'new' does. It'd give a filtered-out 'new' section. As in, a story that is upvoted by 2-3 people and has made to second/third page of HN but never makes it to front page. Few good stories deserve wider audiences IMO.

    Ah, I understand. Wasn't sure if you were being sarcastic in your original post!
