The primary issue with this, I think, is that the sequences are long. I believe even a majority of Less Wrongers currently haven’t read all of them. That seems to me like a pretty strong motive to create something new, which doesn’t take as long to get through.
I think the real challenge here though, is not encapsulating the content of the sequences in a shorter package (that’s easy,) but doing so without making it unfun to read. The sequences are longer than the Lord of the Rings, but I had an easier time getting through the sequences.
