I’ve had conversations cut off by the site when there’s too much back-and-forth between me and one other person. Is that still in force?

When this happens, you can still reply by clicking the timestamp above the post. The reply button will also appear after a while, the system just wants you to slow down.
i wonder if 'slow' notifications might be a good sweet spot. instead of notifying you about a reply instantly it could send a summary of replies once or twice a day
I feel like the `threads` page already serves this function though, even if not in quite the same way.
Anecdotally yes. The increased use of the threads page correlates to my descent into long threaded back-and-forths.
Yes. Happened to me the other day.
