> Isn’t just solving the captcha enough to reach the page?

sure but why not using an alternative service that doesn't have the reCaptcha to start with?

Edit: Just to explain more the problem: depending on your privacy settings, it might take up to a couple minutes to solve the reCaptcha because Google makes it much harder for users who are running anti-fingerprinting tools in their browser. This is also my case. In the end, I usually just give up and don't visit the page in question.
