E-mails are very referencable, and mailing list too.

For IRC, there are ways to record history, and I am sure that
such history may be recorded with referencable hyperlinks.

Look at this example from Guix IRC channel:
https://logs.guix.gnu.org/

It is irrelevant and also natural that we are in different
time zones and countries. System administrator may decide the
reference time zone.
