A thread has far more uses than a comment system (not saying a comment system is useless).

Exactly! A thread helps people to track bugs and allows the reporter to post attachments to show more details, and it doesn't seem as strange to have a large post in a thread compared to a large comment.  This kind of information will also be a lot harder to find for people if you have a lot of comments like "This is really good", "Worst script ever", etc.  Too much spam like that makes it harder to notice the serious issues.
