Annoyingly, this hasn't been the case with a number of posts I've been
seeing recently (that is, people are replying to the first post in the
thread rather than the post they mean to reply to). I wonder if the web
interface doesn't allow people to reply to specific posts? Or maybe since it
has a linear layout, some people don't know the difference?

Assuming it's the web interface which is confusing people, I wish it would
be changed to a tree layout like a newsreader has, in order to help avoid
this confusion.
