My main qualm with the parent comment was this in particular, "Number one, is that forests work as long term carbon storage and sinks." Even with the surrounding context it sounded like this strategy will just "work".
The example you give with mangroves is a great one which does in fact work. Pragmatically and historically most of the attempts however, have not due to mismanagement and other unseen complications.
Seeing the further comments I see the point the parent was making is more around first principles of Forrests as carbon sinks not about its implementations.
