I can completely understand wanting to differentiate from Reddit, but to me, this is a matter of convenience and priority. Putting right after the article implies commenting on the article is emphasized. Putting it at the bottom of the comment page implies a want to comment on the comments.

Maybe there's a reason I'm not seeing here? Am I just dumb?

I like that it's at the bottom. That encourages at least skimming the other comments before you add your own, hopefully cutting down on the number of times people comment the exact same thing.

If you want it to be at the top instead, that's one of the options provided by the Kbin enhancement script.

Perfect. Thank you.

To be honest, when I was on Reddit, I read all the comments in a post once or twice per month, or when the post was really interesting and with discussion potential (again, very scarcely).

Since I'm here, I read all the comments in a post every time I visit a post, except for four times, I guess. But yes, I can read everything, and I'm also able to know whether it's being said what I want to say.

I think the same. There is no need to do it different from reddit if reddit done it right, it is important to do it right where reddit did it wrong.
