Took a quick look at your loom. Very cool. In practice, we prefer just looking through a single channel with threads, but perhaps that's because we're a small team.
You're not alone, I've ran into quite a few cases where working from a thread will suffice (big and small companies). We are still team dedicated incident channel but there are a few things that threads do better.
For example, the number of incident channels that get spun up can get out of hand. Threads are a lot cleaner for that. So we built a workflow that'll let you specify an auto archive behaviour.
We also don't want you to lose context of your threads or conversations, you can run /incident convert in Slack and we'll pull that context over. Lastly, we often see people working from threads from a primary #incidents or #outage channel for better visibility. We'll actually let you specify exactly who you want to notify whenever an incident gets opened/closed.
But generally we found we can do a lot more powerful things in dedicated channels around integrations or even assigning roles if that is important :)

Happy to chat more on your use case tho!
