You have to acknowledge that a lot of people don't see this as
newsgroups getting it right.
I'm completely opposed to it. (recursive*) Threaded views aren't just
suboptimal.
They are a *bad* thing. It was progress to ditch that misfeature, and it pains
me that so many people want it anyway.
I am often involved simultaneously in dozens of threaded conversations. How you
can possibly deal with that using a flat, chronological sort on all the messages
is beyond my comprehension.
Even Digg gave up on that and went to a threaded view.
I also use a threaded view of my email messages.
