I would want HN2.0 to not have the same mass market blogs being submitted to death by karmawhores.
Not having comments makes it less interesting as well I think.

So basically, for me it's missing the only feature that makes HN worth reading.
To be clear: I'm not trying to steal HN's audience. I just think the folks at YCombinator have better things to do than to address UI issues and add new functionality. I'm trying to fill that gap with HN2.
