I think folks should be able to share highlights to their feed, such as quoting it within a kind 1, and have it show up, but it shouldn't go straight to the feed as soon as the highlight is made.

> but it shouldn't go straight to the feed as soon as the highlight is made.
Why?
Say I am highlighting something I want to comment on. If the highlight goes to the feed immediately after it is made, there the feed will show the original highlight, and a few minutes later, my quote-post with my comments.
Also, if the highlight ahows in the feed on its own, without any context, it might be assumed that I highlighted it because I agreed with it, but my quote-post with my commentary might make clear that I highlighted it in order to disagree with it.
Now, if there is a way to add comments at the time of making tje highlight, so that it only shows in the feed once, I would be all for it.

This problem is solved by scheduled posts.

This exists. It’s either referred to as quote comment highlight, or annotations.
