I agree it's a current characteristic of the platform. I disagree that it's an essential property of the platform, which was the claim in the post I'm replying to. The CEO definitely does not agree that Twitter as a platform is going to have to "change fundamentally".

As an aside, the latency in Twitter conversations is 1-3 orders of magnitude slower than real-life (or on-TV) conversation, so you may need to rethink your belief that it's uniquely bad.
