   Yes, that. That is exactly the point of the OP.

     I do think its implied in the medium that strangers CAN reply if they wish.

     Put another way, "reply guys" are okay *IF* they are polite, kind, thoughtful, and respectful of differing opinions. And not narcissistically assuming its all about themselves.

     There are considerations in this discussion of both when to respond and how to respond.

     I may have misunderstood the original meaning of the post as strangers should not reply to TL posts -- rather than that strangers should not assume such are directed at them personally. (Thereby following that they should reply less often and very politely and carefully if at all.)

     Agree reply limiting tools don't exist. Maybe they should.
