Interesting idea! Maybe instead of preventing you from commenting entirely, it just tagged all comments you leave as “have not read article”. I think the shame approach would actually work, but too many people would vehemently reject it for it to ever work.

Perhaps just annotate each comment with how many minutes between clicking the link and making the comment (similar to the green usernames)

That way the reader can decide for themselves. I'm less inclined to object to hasty responses to discussion points than I am to top level comments, but that's just personal choice.
