This doesn't make sense to me. First, I'm not sure there's anything stopping people from doing this now. Can't a person submit an "AMA-style" HN article already? And on the end user side, if a person is interested in AMA-style posts, can't they just go to Reddit? What's the point of "me too" HN AMAs when Reddit's already doing a good job of it.
