Does selecting standout quotes to the forefront not foster curious conversation more than headline reactions?

Perhaps it does. "This is just bizarre" doesn't do much to promote curious conversation, though. Maybe say what you think is wrong with it?
(I mean, sure, you're saying it's self-evident what's wrong with it. And, to many people, maybe it is. Your words are still a shallow dismissal, though.
No—based on long experience I'd say it doesn't. What fosters curious conversation is thoughtful, reflective* responses.
* by 'reflective' I mean something like the opposite of reflexive: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...
