I wonder if there is a bit of self-selection going on in the comments here. Considering LW norms I expect very few people if any to leave comments without reading the entire article. Thus naturally the commenter’s will like or at least tolerate the new style.
I loved the content and indeed I think its more readable than the shorter articles, but I actually had to eat a snack before mustering the willpower to read this.
I enjoyed this post a lot, and I’ve shared with several other people that I think would also like it (and spend the time to read it). But it did take me a while to get to get through, I made coffee at least twice while reading it. I think it was almost 2 hours from opening the article to getting to the end. Not all of that time was spent reading—as well as getting coffee, I paused several times to digest what I’d read so far. However, it was still a lot longer than I’d normally spend on a single post.

That seems likely to me.
