Good idea. I often have questions where I'd like to canvas the views of other developers. Given the popularity of a lot of closed questions on SO, I'm guessing I'm not the only one. Don't much like the drill-down aspect. When you click on a question (/topics/blahblah), I'd rather see one long single-column page with everything on it. The Select Viewpoint nav bar could stay with you, as you scroll, for convenience.

> Good idea. Thank you!! I see where you're coming from with the drill down. The tradeoff we had to make is to handle these types of topics: http://slant.co/topics/what-is-the-best-programming-font http://slant.co/topics/what-is-the-best-programming-font Where there are only a little bit of text and mainly overviews. And these types of topics: http://slant.co/topics/what-is-the-best-architecture-for-building-a-web-service/opinions/rest http://slant.co/topics/what-is-the-best-architecture-for-bui... That are more long form. It's hard to create a view to handle both use-cases, but we will definitely try as you're right that it would be better. > The Select Viewpoint nav bar could stay with you, as you scroll, for convenience. Will test that, thanks!
