I agree it would have been better to have this as two posts – I’m personally finding it difficult to respond to either the paper or the post, because when I focus on one I feel like I’m ignoring important points in the other.
That said, the fact that both are being discussed in a single post is down to the authors, not the commenters. I think it’s reasonable for any given commenter to focus on one without justifying why they’re neglecting the other.
