Before it becomes prohibitively expensive to comment on this post, some feedback.
The tone you write this in is extremely annoying. It sounds like it’s coming from a position of patronising false authority. My best guess is that you’re imitating the writing style of someone else, and my advice would be to find someone else to imitate.
As a data point, if it were on a different blog or in a book, I would like it.
Actually, I like it here, too. It just seems to explain things that mostly don’t need to be explained here, and the “the really good parts will come in the future articles” aspect is annoying.
I don’t react to it at all that way, although it is likely that karma-voting wise (and you are close to negative karma which I think will stop you posting) I am in the minority.
I think you are trying to tell a story in a somewhat different way than usual. You want to build on these unusual insights further down the story (in future posts) and so you would like to establish the early part of the story in as simple and straightforward a way as possible. And so you tell it in a simple straightforward way.
So I read it as: now I very much know where you are coming from, and look forward to see where you go with it.
