I see your point and that's up to you. But I do think factoring in the end user's experience is important here if you want them to listen to your argument.

You're trying to sell someone that your idea is right, but having the desktop experience be a bit difficult (and putting it on the end user to deal with it) doesn't really help you in communicating your points. It also makes it harder for them to digest your content, therefore people might just skip over it.

But again, it's a personal blog so all these decisions are up to you and your liking!
