It looks to me like it would be easier to copy a thread into a text or Word document and delete everything but the summary statements, and then copy the summary statements all together to wherever desired.

The way I have it now (if it's working), you can select a relevant quote, make edits to it, and come up with a brief description for a title, and then it would roll all of that up into a collapsable item in the target document, along with a link back to the source document, in case you want to look at the statements in the surrounding context later. So I think that the cross-referencing is useful.
