Thank you. Yes, that reflects my preference. I come to HN for deep interesting information that's also well-summarized and well-discussed. I may or may not always read through to the journal article, depending on my interest in the area, but I value the article link, the summary, and the discussion.
A high quality summary is important. For example, I would not grasp the significance (in the general case) of an HN post linking to an Arxiv paper titled "The entropy formula for the Ricci flow and its geometric applications". The summary will tell me that this is claimed to be (part of?) a proof of the Poincaré conjecture.
