The sense of entitlement in the OP is nauseatingly overwhelming.
Unless there's an existing, explicit contract, only assumed, implicit contracts apply - and it's unlikely "I, the author, will spend a lot of time creating a concise summary to prove my writing is worth your time", is one of them.

I am struggling here. A webpage is the easiest document to search through, in multiple senses of search.

Agreed, but creating high quality summaries are extremely expensive. It's very very hard to be concise. Unless there's already an existing, explicit contract in place to compensate the author for making this effort, why would any smart person do it?
