I like knowing how deep in a thread a node is. Having multiple "Re:"s is ugly, and many monks use various numbering schemes (any of which would probably suffice); but in the absence of an alternative that still indicates depth, I'd prefer not to squash the multpile "Re:"s down to a single one.

I don't know about you, but I don't view PM nodes in a threaded mail reader. I often check the newest nodes, however, and when a monk removes those tags there is no way for me to tell how far off on a tangent his reply might be.
