Well thought points mate.
Personally, I feel one liners are ok for some types of post. Lets say that you created a resource post where you complied a list of cool social media icons.
This type of post will often attract large number of comments, but most of them will be short. Often saying “thank you” or “great list”.
What you comment depends a lot on the type of post.

I am getting reluctant to add more plugins to my blog. If I am going to add more then I want to remove some others but I do agree that I appreciate them as a commenter. Those are pretty good lessons.

I’ve got quite a number too and I’ve read that too much plugins actually make your blog slower to load.

Wow! A good point of view about the importance of comment. I also do valuable comments on other blogs to share my knowledge the topic they discussed.
I also love connecting to different people on various blogs. In the other hand, I already awarded as “The Most Valuable Commentator of TechZoomIn Commenting Contest.
