This is best done using the first sentence of a paragraph. Make a statement first and support it with the rest of the paragraph. At least that's a style judges use on verdicts. That way I can skim a long text easily enough. The opposite is having a conclusion at the end. That's used for opinions. A severe disagreement (not to say error) can be found faster if building an argument from the ground up. If your conclusion is somewhere in the middle and scattered all over the place, you might want to highlight that indeed. I prefer stream of conscioussness for quick notes, but bringing it into a proper format can help to refine the argument.
