You're at least partly right about sites being crawled differently depending on popularity. I think the factors may not be limited to popularity alone, but we see this behavior documented in the crawling rate documentation Google provi

Thanks for sharing your notes, I'm sure they will help someone sometime. It's interesting to see that another person who's excited to share his notes is also an Emacs and org-mode user. For what it's worth, here are mine
