The basic idea of the mockup is that you have a discussion that happens on three layers:
Top-level considerations, polls and comments
Discussion of these considerations
Summaries of the current state of the considerations and discussion
The considerations, polls and comments can be noun phrases or feelings, and if they get highly upvoted, a summary is strongly encouraged to include the comments and the comment thread below it.
The summaries will be prominently displayed at the top, to allow new users to get a sense of the current state of the discussion, and participate productively. It also allows users who just want a quick answer to the question of the thread to quickly get what they want.
