Yes, I agree. I like the new functionality of the forums but there's a reason why I didn't enable the ability to comment on the actual articles as I find being able to see the behind the scenes discussions on the actual page of the article to be unprofessional and messy. I prefer there to be a division between discussion of the topic and what's actually presented publically so having the discussion forcibly appended to an article simply because I want the forums to be able to do more seems to be too much of a poison pill. I'm contemplating just disabling the Forum feature until I can see what the next update brings.
