Well done.
I have been thinking about commenting and debate platforms lately, mainly two aspects
a) How to map comments/arguments in a way that the system by design encourages healthy debate and at the same time remain very intuitive to read (and contribute) for not so regular user
For example: I am big fan of http://en.arguman.org/ is great work in mapping argument but might not be easy regular naive internet users
b) How can platform ensure that majority which may be is in favor of certain side (of argument), it doesn't influence rational argument. I am referring to trolls.
Example: http://kialo.com/ is a good implementation but arguments can be pulled to one's side by sheer majority.
