I feel like debates (especially on BS) are (or have to be?) repeated way too often, why is that anyway? Why can't it be one single tree, consisting of branches on multiple platforms, collecting, managing and curating?

but that would assume a system where people are concerned with facts and not they're own "personal opinions"

where's the ego stroking in that solution?

- by helping others. Recording valuable talking points, refutations.

- by understanding more and more deeply, instead of possibly less.

- by having a jumpboard to learn more.

- by seeing where you stand compared to the larger picture. Understanding the opposite side instead of just seeing them as enemy of ones' own opinion.

- by seeing more people that argue similar to you. Requires categorization and grouping of votes.

- by being able to share discussions more easily and not to be bound by a single group for answers.
