>buried lede some 500 words in on what "packaging," actually is and why it's bad, His primary audience is not HackerNews. I assume that most of the people subscribed to David Simon's blog are probably working in Hollywood and thus do not need so much explanation as to what Packaging is. He even explicitly calls out the fact that we are not the intended audience for his rant in the first substantial paragraph of the piece, and implicitly through his repeated references to the Writer's Guild of America. So I find this criticism rather unfair. Imagine a Facebook group for bird watching complaining about how a Medium post ranting about the evils of object-oriented programming didn't sufficiently explain what it is to people with no experience in programming.
