This will stop pyramid quoting but it won’t stop those that quote the entire thread when they are replying to just a single part of that post.  

It will be better if you just make it an habit to always edit a post you quoted - because the more you do it the better you become and it won’t look that much difficult to you again. It’s obvious that this won’t get implemented as it only encourages lazy behavior so just make it something you do all the time.

A whole lot of stress for mobile users, but I don't see this as a very pressing issue. For anyone who prefers using the forum on mobile, it's just a matter of time before they master how to use all tools, even quoting from the same mobile without considering it a stress, just as I do most times using mobile or PC.

Sorry but I see it as an unnecessary button or will just be adding to redundancy. The quote button is easily there to quote the particular posts and when it is clicked it will actually quote that posts only that if the post has any existing quotes it combines everything just simply go make the reader get an insight of where the discussion also coming from. So base on your question how do they separate the two quote button for it not to alike, if it becomes two. This is another example of adding button to the forum when it is not something one needs actually

The sad truth is that the forum isn't well suited for mobile phones. At least this has been said several times.

What you are suggesting will only encourage more and more pyramid quotes, which is so unpleasant. If someone is so lazy editing their posts and quotes, then they have no business or reason posting in the forum.

The quote button is generally  to quote the whole text from a user and previous quotes from others included by the user in his/her post .
Mostimes, there's always a need remove other quotes from the text, not everyone actually some  prefer to include it while some are lazy to edit anything... I do that sometimes so far it's not in form of a pyramid quote.

Thus, we can have  two quote button, one for " quote single" or whatever suits it to quote just the user post and the other to quote all just they way it is including other quotes. I know this is much more easier to do using PCs  as you can always edit easily with mouse but using mobile isn't that easy especially when you need to edit more and more quote and at the same time, it should be beneficial to PC users to.it can also be implemented for the insert too  to prevent inserting all quotes within a quite while editing...
