The reply link does appear eventually; there's just a delay that gets longer as the nesting gets deeper.
It's supposed to slow down rapid back-and-forth threads that are usually between just two or a few people, often are arguments, and occasionally "take over" posts by generating dozens of comments.

Is there a description somewhere of the problem this solves and why it's needed?

Interesting discussions, but then you have people editing their previous comment because they can't reply yet.

Is there a description somewhere of the problem this solves and why it's needed? Hacker news seemed to function pretty well when you could reply to whatever you wanted whenever you wanted to.
