I thought that was on purpose, like “the thread in general is locked, but here is the place to go meta and complain about locking”.
What does the admin user interface look like? You lock comments one by one, instead of locking the entire thread? Maybe “lock this comment and all its replies” would be a better option. Less clicking, smaller chance of a mistake.
Oh for sure, we just haven’t coded that yet, and it doesn’t come up enough to be near the top of our priorities. (We have some tech debt around how comments work that makes it a little more annoying than it needs to be, which we’ll get around to fixing someday, after which adding a. “lock thread” feature would probably be easier)
