>that's an implementation detail
It's not, it's a fundamental design-stage question that decides what is possible or not possible to build on top of the overlay, if you can't reliably prove someone is OP then you can't physically implement your idea about OP moderation for example.
>Do you think mods own the site then
Whoever owns the infrastructures own the site yes, they can also choose to delegate their power to the mods which the current owner of 4chan choose to do, so the mods do own the site, just stating a fact not saying it's a desirable state of things since they often abuse their power or make shitty choices like banning you if you post anime on /g/.
If you want to change this through an overlay fine but why give this power to OPs which could abuse it the same way? It also goes against anonimity because you recognize OP as someone special, which implies identity, in the current system mods don't partecipate in discussion so it's not a problem. How can you do impartial moderation if you have a stake in the thread and are part of the discussion?
Would be better to use the overlay so that you can vote on what posts or threads get hidden, in other words collective moderation.
>It would depend on the OP, and also you get to toggle collapsing per-thread if you don't like what the OP is doing
If this system only benefits OPs, then only OPs would use it why should non OP use it exactly?
