In summary, the conversation is discussing whether or not one is allowed to comment on an insight article and if there should be a link on the article for posting comments. The conclusion is that the comments go on the thread announcing the article and it would be possible to add a link to the comments post on the insights article.

Is one allowed to comment on an insight article? It says that one needs to be logged in. When I click on it, it says I am already logged in.

Should one be posting comments on the thread announcing the article? If so, shouldn’t there be a link on the insights article?

That's where the comments go.

I guess the assumption is that you found the article via the announcement post. The way things usually work is that the Insights article is posted before the announcement post. It would be possible, though, to edit the Insights article to include a link to the comments post.
