The fav button was a useful tool back when it meant "fav" as in "bookmark" and not "like". Maybe they should go back to that? I know they've recently added a "bookmark" button as well, but I hope they don't keep it hidden the way it is now.
On the other hand: Twitter does not have to be a debate site. You can surely debate using it, but it's just a website where you can post short messages and follow your friends. They shouldn't screw it just to cater to a certain part of their user base.

+1. I've since switched (grudgingly) to sending myself DM's of Tweets that I want to "save for later". A poor substitute, but easy to reach for from the UI.
