I realize that's what many people do, but I don't agree with it because it's an implicit signal of interest/worthiness, due to affecting rankings. It gives people on HN the wrong perception of what is popular/worth learning and risks leading autodidacts astray.

I actually agree and I would love to see HN adopt a separate "save" flag aside from "upvote" (like Reddit does), but... it is what is, for the moment anyway.
