Why was the " Unusually high data usage megathread " thread locked, and now we can't reply.

It seems the  " Unusually high data usage megathread " thread was locked and merged from what I'm guessing are other threads.  That makes sense, but we need the ability to continue to add information and reply to the megathread.

Maybe it was a mistake to merge multiple threads with an ANSWERED thread.  Seems to be different issues being discussed in all the merged threads causing confusion.  If the threads aren't specifically related to a common symptom/cause then they should stand alone and be addressed.

Makes sense....  I'm betting since it was marked as "answered" it removed some abilities.
