Well, maybe Rational_Brony wants to find posts with detailed explanation of some position/fact with a summary of corroborating evidence.
I treat that as preference for 1k-ish posts over ≤140-character posts.
On many forums posting a medium-length essay without too much polishing would be just "business as usual", on some other it would be "weird but OK". On Twitter it is declared impossible if you use it as supposed. You could use Twitter as an RSS-like stream for your blog, but leading conversation by linking blog posts with points and couterpoints doesn't seem to be widespread practice on Twitter.
EDIT: I answered before readng the entire thread; looks like I mostly guessed.
Hmm. This thread is forcing me to think about what character limits actually do. Also how reader interaction changes as count increases. Also difference between solo reading at leisure of a text that's graven in stone and social reading of a text that's being written collaboratively in the moment. Also different rates of "in the moment" (LW speed vs. Twitter speed).
