For anyone looking for a quick patch for this I've written an incredibly grim hack to make the add a post/reply buttons go straight to the advanced editor screen skipping the in-line editor entirely.
It's a tour de force of how not to do JS in Moodle so YMMV but is working for my client until something better comes up.

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$('div.p-t-1.p-b-1 a').click(function () {
$('#id_advancedadddiscussion').click();
});
$('div[data-region="post-actions-container"] a[data-action="collapsible-link"]').click(function (e) {
window.location.replace($(e.target).attr('href'));
});
});
</script>
