It's not just that people aren't reading your last section. We are. Well, I did anyway, and I didn't get the impression from other comments on this article that people are skipping it. It's that your blog post is written against a problem that doesn't exist. Very few codebases in this world even have enough comments, and fewer still have too many.

When I consider this and read an article warning about over-commenting, it suggests a certain perspective that I believe is incorrect. That is what I and probably many of the other readers reacted against in this post. If you only meant this article as an academic exercise ("hypothetically, in a world where people write too many comments, I would give this advice to over-commenters"), you need to say so at the top. Otherwise it gives the impression that you believe there is an over-commenting problem, and that someone might actually need to read this blog post or benefit from the advice contained within. Such people are rare.
