Some threads flat out look like shit (ESPRade's forever... maybe still now, haven't looked... etc.). The kicker would be in a coded system some extra fields would have to be coded, but it's not rocket science.

Of course a combination of the two could work as well.
I agree it would be very good for the site to add some form of standardization to high score topics. I think, for example, that links to replays/videos of some of the ranked scores, put in the first post, really benefits the community, and should be present in all high score topics. Some rules for capping and minimum proof for first scores would be great. If all first scores come with a video or replay that is also linked in first post, every guest who come here could easily have access to high performance demonstration in each game, that would probably up their interest in the genre faster. Besides, it's entertaining and inspiring for everyone.

It's much cooler to post a high score with no proof.
