Yes I've thought about this too (the twitter way).
But the main reason why this has not been implemented is because this is how Twitter leads to so many out-of-context retweets which is the root of all evil.
I am pretty satisfied with the quality of discourse happening on PowPing so far, and I think one of the reasons for that is because when you engage in a conversation thread, it's effectively creating a small bubble among those who are involved, and people feel much safer to carry on conversations without having to worry about any of their messages getting taken out of context and used as an attack vector.
That said, I'm all ears on any ways to improve discoverability, i'm listening to all suggestions and appreciate feedback.
