Your proposal might be more visually appealing in certain cases but there is no clear visual explanation of what is going on. New users and people browsing without an account wouldn't intuitively understand that these are comments from crossposts in federated instances (what does any of this mean?)

I don't think normies care, and i believe essentially it doesn't matter.

But I haven't done any research or spoken to any users, so I'm just going off instincts.

Happy to be proven wrong. I'm not a fediverse expert.
