That's… (to be polite) completely insane as a discussion system from a
user perspective, and perhaps more importantly for your argument,
completely not something that happens right now in MediaWiki
conversations.
You generally see them in the form
::@namex @namey @namez Lorem ipsum
Ah, right. Flow already supports pinging people in replies in exactly
this fashion, which is a lot more free-form, flexible and
understandable for users than trying to get people to build a DAG each
time they comment.
