I can't see how this suggestion would work without killing the site by having too many hoops for potential new answerers to jump through. The goal is to kill bad answers or answers to off-topic questions, not all answers. | |

An interesting thought experiment, though, is to require some threshold vote (even just +1) on the question before opening its answer section. Kind of like the opposite to non-review answer-deletion requiring a negative answer score before the delete link is presented. | |
