> Different version, different video.
In the context we're talking about, do you believe the comments on video A (10 minutes of maths lecture with a typo in one of the digrams) would be hugely different from the comments on video B (10 minutes of maths lecture with that typo corrected); so much so that it's worth throwing out all the early comments and starting from scratch? Or are you thinking of some other use-case?
> I don’t want to additionally have to pay attention to whether we watched the same video or not.
Good news for you then! Making "video version number" part of the API means that you can filter those out programatically too :)

You've contributed to the discussion, but your opening gambit was inflammatory and I respectfully suggest that you tone it down in future. Just thought you should know that I was close to ignoring you outright because of your tone.
