top abstract = human readable overview of what paper/code describes. the other abstracts are paper/code specific - which often deviate allot. The aim is to give you an overview at a glance. If you have ideas on how to improve, please post them on our github issues page, always open for great suggestions!

But then, isn't it better to have one high-level overview instead of 3 overlapping overviews? (3 overviews do not make it easier to get a quick grasp of the project.)

I don't have a quick solution - it's much matter of taste (and balance).

BTW:

- Any plans to add some external measures of interest? (E.g. GitHub stars, arXiv trackbacks, SciRate scites/# of comments?)

The authors often don´t provide one or the other, so we opted to give them choice over convention. API integrations are planned down the line. As well as using machine learning techniques to cut down on noise.
