Regarding 3), why would they care? You reading the same thread doesn't add page views, so a comment system that removes the function to do so easily will drive you to click on other articles and view them. It's one of those things that's a big "screw you" to an existing user base, but when page hits and link clicks…

I still don't grasp what's so hard about designing touch-screen layout for touch greens while allowing for a more conventional layout for full-size computers.
