Do remember that doing so will primarily lead to you loosing the ability to flag things for misusing the feature.

How is it misuse if the article is unreadable due to a paywall?

How is flagging a submission for something site rules and moderators explicitly say is acceptable on HN not misusing the flag feature, which is for things that are not acceptable?

A pay-walled submission being acceptable on a news site when people likely do not spend a lengthy amount of time and likely do not want a hassle trying to consume information seems like a bad business decision.
