Note you can already do this using the hypothes.is tool. I have suggested using this in the past, but people were concerned that this make the discussion less unified, if you had to look in two different places. If this were integrated within the platform, that could solve this problem.
The discussion can be more unified (interpreted as organized with better-searchable ideas) if the comments are in-line and one does not need to search (the same) quotes and their responses in the comments. One would look in-line for comments relevant to the quotes that they like/seek to discuss or learn further perspectives on and under the article they would look for general comments. This is similar to how one would comment on a Google Docs draft that someone asked them to proofread.
Possibly, most commented on quotes could be highlighted - ‘community highlighting.’ By number of comments, their length, or post part upvote. Are there any bias confirmation/perpetuation on first-come basis risks?
I wonder what searchability (of annotations and linked notes) optimal for the Forum would be. Currently, it seems somewhat difficult to search articles by keyword by the Forum search function, because of the recommendation algorithm that may disproportionately show specific posts.
