Why did the other submission, with good conversation, just disappear into oblivion with this one in its place? :/

It probably triggered the flamewar detector (a lot of comments, not a lot of upvotes). Not surprising given what a horrible title the other post has.

IIRC HN has some sort of flame war heuristic and when comments outrank votes on a submission it gets deranked. Which is kin of unfortunate if it's just ordinary discussion.

And now this submission is just gone. Rather disappointing, this was an interesting topic.

(if this gets restored and someone wants to remove these comments, feel free)

HN algorithm is weird. I think it's moderated with manually inserted weights.
