Regarding 2, it is sort of ridiculous how many comments some posts get on reddit. And you're really unlikely to get any interaction leaving a comment on a post that already has say, 12,000 comments, while meanwhile due to the way the site works, more and more people see the posts that are already at the top.

It's easy to sort by new and camp new posts

You underestimate the power of defaults. I can guarantee you a large percentage of people might even know it’s possible but don’t want to bother tinkering with settings or just forget about that on the few minutes they just scroll and read/comment.
