"The article makes some good points about model design"
But how can I tell if those are good points or not?
I don't want to invest time in reading something if the presence of those "good points" depends on a roll of the dice.

The problem is that in the past it took multiple times more effort and hours to write something than it took to read. That served two purposes:
1. Lazy people just looking for an audience were effectively gatekept from drowning the world with their every vapid thought.
2. Because supply was many times slower than consumption it was viable to give most articles a chance: the author could not drown me in a deluge even if they wanted to.
Having the criteria now that the author should spend at least as much effort creating the piece as they expect the reader expend reading it is a damn useful bar: instead of reading 1000 AI articles just to find the one good one, I can simply read 10 human authored articles and be certain that 9 of them have something worthwhile.
