We agree on the sites, but I don't see what the conversation being flat has to do with it. Reddit is famous for the AMA threads, those are threaded.

Yeah, but try reading an AMA after it's been finished. It is really hard to find everything from the Askee.

I'm not intrinsically opposed to threads, but I'm not sure they're super beneficial outside of technical contexts or in an environment where people are expected to break a larger conversation off into it's own little set of discussions to keep the high level conversation easy to understand.
