Comment:

 Read the Slack "discussion" and wanted to give more feedback, but I don't
 know what is meant by this feedback from @karmatosed :

 > What do people think?

 Is it a question about the user and therefore a rhetorical UX question? Or
 is it something directed to me? Do you think this is an absurd edge case
 which should be ignored?

 Yes, this plugin is from me, but if WP is interested this could be merged
 to core. If not, please close as Wontfix. If yes, I can provide a patch
 for it based on the plugin.

 joyously asked:
 > It's a feed, isn't there a format already for it? Does it depend on what
 you use to view the feed? Would it change what the feed reader software is
 expecting?

 I don't know any feedreader which can show threaded comments. All
 feedreader show the feed in plain chronological (or reverses
 chronological) order. No threading. And therefore this addition would make
 sense IMHO. The RSS spec has no threading at all if I am right.
