it's not about being a "reply to all", it's about visibility.
microblogging clients are browsers to people's short notes; the fact that the entry-point clients (microblogging) exclude all non-microblogging short notes brutally reduces the discoverability of everything else.
It means there's no feedback loop. It used to be that I could create a highlight of an article and, discussion around it would get organic distribution, or you publish a podcast and there's could be a discussion around it. If now that discussion can only be visible/known in the respective clients, those discussions will very quickly die off.
There's a reason why youtube/medium/substack comments massively suck.
There's no feedback loop, so people don't invest in making good, coherent points, maybe four people will see the comment, most likely the person that was the target of the comment (ie. reply to a reply) won't even see the response.
With nostr the data is all there, and we could choose to provide it visibility, to provide a wider view into activity and discussions regardless of the content-type that originated the discussion.
