This is useful for 2 reasons - 1 - for people to scan see what mentions they haven't replied to yet (it is easy for those to get lost in email), 2 - to create a to do list of things that need response. #1 is the more important. i'd like the team to be able to scan for mentions that they haven't yet replied to. if they miss one, there is no way for them to see it, and i would have to follow up and mention them again, which defies the point of mentioning them in the first place.
