> "Did you read the article?" is a particularly unhelpful comment when the linked article has been hugged to death, and the real article is behind a sign in wall. As is making assumptious comment without reading the article, especially when the comment may be wrong. I think it's not only unhelpful, but actually harmful, because other people, who also jump straight to comment section, may form an opinion based on misinformation. Also, timbit42 did provide us with what they read in the linked content; unless they added it with an edit.
