Small elements of Twitter's design really exacerbate this problem.
In a strictly time-ordered tweet view, you'd see one or another of antirez's tweets, be be curious, and go back into his & other respondents timelines to see the full conversation, w/ whatever context was originally there.
But how Twitter works right now is you get what appears to be a full conversation neatly tied together, but it's actually been selectively edited by an algorithm maximizing (I'm educated guessing) engagement, which ends up basically being an automated filter to create misunderstandings and controversy.
