Valid and relevant comments are the way to go. They don't need to be massively long either, just friendly, sort of like a person might speak with another in real life. You seem to do well with it.

Yes. The goal is to have a meaningful conversation with the author or reader. At times, an argument may ensue, but the essence of an argument (or disagreement) is that we get different perspectives on a matter, enabling us to have a better introspective view from our own standpoint, in turn making us better as we learn.
I learned that the word "conversation" is a mid-14th century word and originally had nothing to do with talking. Conversation originally meant a place where one lives or dwells. The overall pattern of actions or habits: the manner of conducting oneself.
This is also why I try to have quality conversations when I can, because they can help shape my thought processes better.
They do not have to be massively long, like I just did. But the end goal is to effectively communicate and learn.
Quality conversations are better than bad ones, and when a person is trying to build a profile, like a new user here on Hive, then quality is much more valuable than quantity.
