It would be cool if I could put “Epistemic status” and “TLDR” fields at the top of a post in an actual separate UI element from the text body. They are semantically separate from the text body and I never know whether to insert a separating “—” or force myself to use a header for the section after it or what.
Many posts would benefit from including those things. But most authors would do it poorly if forced/strongly encouraged, so I’d rather have it be intentional and just part of YOUR habits.
Just start your posts (or at least those which you think benefit) with a TLDR and Epistemic Status header in the text.

I don’t think an optional field counts as strongly encouraging to be filled, if implemented properly
I would say don’t insert a separating “—”, just treat it as the first paragraph of the introduction.
