Being long is not a disqualifier for being in discussion. In fact, every main post could go into discussion; the question is whether a post deserves to be in main.
After reflecting upon your statement, I believe that I committed a case of attribute substitution. I substituted “Is this a fully fleshed out idea?” with “Is this a long post?”. Although, on further reflection, being fleshed out is perhaps necessary but definitely not sufficient for main.
This seemed long enough that it shouldn’t go in discussion. However, if anyone thinks otherwise, let me know and I’ll move it.

Ah. This did not occur to me, since I tend to regard length as a cost.
