This was my first thought <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T78467> too, but 
there is more:

Second thought: oh well, but not all articles have a discussion page, so we 
cannot reliably link to discussion pages if we don't know whether they exist or 
not.

Many additional thoughts:

- Could a gadget query those pages and see whether they exist or not? But this 
would be an expensive operation for a neat feature that in most cases would not 
be used...
- Should that information be stored in Wikidata after all?
- Could we just show red links for the discussions missing?
- Could 'whatever' be a good enough first approach, considering that the 
benefits still would outweigh the cost of sending some users to discussion 
pages to be created?
