Sure, but it might be not a great experience if not enough people watch
both or move to discourse. ie, people asking questions there or starting
discussions and no one answering them.

So, if people want to discuss in discourse, great, but I don't think we
should create a vast sea of empty topics until/unless people are needing
them.

Yeah, it's kind of a chicken / egg situation - you're not going to know until you
throw something out there and let people give it a whirl and determine how it
works for them in a real world situation - not some lab mockup. 
The Foreman results that Matt posted earlier appeared to indicate it
would be worthwhile to try.
