This is likely because you must open two separate windows -- one for the article, and a second for the comments. often when i read an article in a separate window, i want to make a quick comment but decide it's not worth the effort to find the comments page again!

of course, this is remedied by some FF plug-ins, but i doubt most users have those installed.

when i first moved here from reddit i ran into this problem a lot. then i got slightly annoyed at having to have twice as many browser tabs open as before. i still don't use the plugin, but it has ceased to be a problem. my friends and i joke about having to get through all our tabs before getting down to the brass tacks.
