Really interesting article. I strongly agree with the general premise of this article. With that said, I'm confused about algorithm 2 (difficult words). How does adding "Yes!" in front of a sentence change it from a 0.45 reading level to a 0.25? Am I missing something?? Was something else changed in that sentence? I also think it's interesting that the article accurately pointed out that writers will censor themselves when writing for the intellectually challenged. And yet, I see examples of censorship in this very article (intentionally or not). For example: "In recent decades, as disability activists have won more civil rights, both in the US and internationally, accessible writing has gained greater attention." vs "People with disabilities have more rights than ever before." I feel like leaving out "civil" from rights could be construed as censorship. After all, what good is it to know you have rights if you don't even know what type of rights they are?
