I don't understand what you're trying to say. How would his abstract be different if he wasn't trying to get as many people to look at it?

Many results in math establish a famous theorem by proving something more abstract that "easily" implies the famous result, like with Fermat's Last Theorem.

Perhaps by leaving off the last sentence, "this implies P not equal NP", and changing the title. That sentence does not change the meaning of the paper; it just adds an eye-catching (and already accepted as true) implication.

I suppose, though it would be very strange and disingenuous to leave off the most important implication.

Well, Turing called his famous paper "On computable numbers, with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem" without really state that the "application" is that he solved it.
