My understanding of 'backchannel' in this context is that when a comment or post provokes a certain group within this forum, they have a method to influence the moderation. This is done through the backchannel by flagging the comment and then guiding people on appropriate or inappropriate behavior beyond the main discussion.
Isn't this flagged thread a backchannel?
Voting isn't an alternative method, it's a primary signal.
