I made a similar post a week or two back. There would definitely be an increase in the amount of arguments under quizzes.
However, I see a great value in being able to have discussions in comments and think it outweighs the inevitable arguments (which already happen). It would really help create a closer community, where people actually know other users and can discuss topics they're passionate about. I love JetPunk, but would enjoy it so much more if I was able to interact with other users outside of the occasional message board post and off-site forum.
I feel like it doesn't make sense to have a friend request feature with such limited access to actual discussion on the website.
Maybe it could be a feature reserved for the message board? Feel like discussions are not as angrily charged as on quizzes given the more community feel on here.
'Cause then friends feature is worthless.

It does add a significant amount of work since most political discussions quickly devolve into name calling and hate speech. See: Reddit, Twitter.
More premium features would be cool! I think most current premium users just do it to support the website and tree planting.
