That would be the point of mentioning the process, that it isn't very
streamlined.  And for discussion in which direction it might best go.

Probably people might have different approaches as to what kind of
strategies people would like to go by to read as little as possible, and
yet read through all their topics. Maybe one poster posts copiously, but
you'd like to ignore him, but not forever.

Throwing a big segment in the trash bin can slice through a lot of
conversational and relational chatter, which can be a disadvantage.
Something comes up, and you are clueless to the current topic.
