Yes. Because people won't look through the edit history for the same reason they don't read the fine print or studies that are cited. I'm pretty sure making it easier to misinterpret what tweets say is going to be even worse

I haven't used Twitter in over five years and ignore people who show me screenshots of tweets. Haven't felt any loss in my life over the decisions.
