I agree with the parent post.

Reserve comments for subscribers-only. Non-subscribers can write a Letter to the Editor to express their views.

I definitely second that. This would be an additional incentive to
subscribe as well...

I definitely agree with the reserving comments to subscribers, with
letters to the editor if the non-subs really want to get through. I paid
for quality content; I'd like to keep it that way.

If the non-subs want to comment so badly (with their insightful
comments), they should become a subscriber anyway. Obviously, commenting
is important to such a reader, so they should help us keep LWN going by
subscribing.
