We knew that is would seem redundant right now to have both the Discussions module and article comments at the bottom of an article page. If the new feature works out, then we may want to archive the old article comments, the way that we've done with old user talk pages (with Message Wall) and old Forum namespace pages (with the new Forums). It's too early to make that decision, though -- we want to try out the new feature and see how it goes. We decided that for now we would embrace the redundancy and just see how people use the new stuff.
