Well, it's an important concept to know when something is an ad or not and to, even in general, know or be able to reason about the motivations of the writer of an article. I think that's why it's important. This is especially relevant when it's a submarine ad, as the person to whom you're replying mentioned.

It reminds me of a juvenile that just found out the world works a slightly different way than they were told in kindergarten. There is simply a more obvious and more substantive discussion to be had about the above article, then incessantly searching for ads, you can just assume everything is an ad as a baseline and move on, with the format of the ad being just as strategic.

- kohtatsu 6y agoAssuming everything is an ad is absurd; and resigning yourself to pessimism won't lead to better outcomes. It's important to know the incentives involved in the creation of a piece of information.
