I see knowledge as being a dag where the edges are directional and where the edges actually mean something, meaning multiple types of edges. Generic backlinks are nowhere near sufficient and lead to the sort of combinatorial explosion the author talks about. But when you have "statement" and "statement" necessitates "conclusion", (the edge means "necessitates") then reviewing the graph over time can actually lead toward you paring down the graph and distilling it to the knowledge that is most useful to you.
