Twitter has an explicit "in_reply_to" field which references the parent tweet ID. Since they've seized control of most clients (and most clients implement the correct parameters), this has wildly increased the coherence of Twitter threads, at least in comparison to a few years back.
Apologies, I made a poorly directed joke at the new UI of twitter. I'm honestly not against it, personally, but I know it has garnered the ire of quite a few of my friends.

Can we look forward to this coming to twitter soon? :)
