No.

The last thing Steem needs are echo chambers. I'd prefer a different option again to what is proposed. "The author of this article has muted this commenter, which is why you may not see a reply to the comment from the author."

There are genuine cases were individuals mute people for petty things, when they are attempting to constructively critique or promote discourse with that writer.

Progress is only made when people build upon their differences and disagree, and a platform like Steem should be completely transparent, showing all, and every point of view in regards to a piece of content.
