"some people are adding to threads from years ago as they think they are current. It would be more logical, and sensible, if threads over 6 months old were locked from new comments."
Why do you assume people don't know they aren't current?
People maybe use the forum search facility to find if a topic they're interested in has been posted and comment on it.
Just because you personally don't want to reply or comment on threads 6 months or older, doesn't mean everyone is of the same mindset.
I love browsing old posts and then finding more recent posts of the same subject to see how people's views have changed ( or not ) over time.
