First off, you spelled idiocy wrong. Second, this site has always been as world oriented as it has been technical/programming oriented. Take this mix or leave it because this site doesn't revolve around your needs.

This is why nested comments are probably not a good idea. Yes, in principle, having a "flat" display option can fix the way comments are displayed. But the problem with nested comments is that the format may encourage people to say dumber things. Who needs this slashdot stuff about spelling mistakes?
(And before anyone points out that I'm using nested comments to make this point, let me add that I would not have had to if there weren't nested comments.)
