- Cards seem quite similar to a carousel with maybe different movement options.
- Twitter character limit is already exceeded by people writing somewhere and posting the screenshotted image of the text, which is awful.
- 1/N.. N/N style can be expressed better by extended character limits, but that will decrease the number of tweets, which a public company may see as a deteriorating metric.
Unfortunately Twitter has more usability problems than char limit in the main timeline user interface.
- Viewing a conversation is pretty much confusing. You click on a tweet, it expands and it's not obvious how the conversation with a tree-branching structure proceeds

- "Read later" is needed independent of "Like"
