   I completely agree with the sentiment, and appreciate the emotional tone. Instead of a tl;dr summary, I think you could actually make a separate, short-attention-span style infographic with the salient points, and have a potent long-form as

    OK, thats not really clear from the layout. Your example is clearer, but if you have to put it in a script and pipe stuff to it, its not really a 1-liner.
