This is quality writing for a blog post. Bet it would be accepted for publication as a review article in a suitable scientific journal.

Why would the author go to that much extra effort to reach fewer people, slower?

I am not saying he should, just an observation about high quality of the text.

But also to your question - it's not the quantity of readers that matters. Reaching the right people, for whom this text will not just be an afternoon entertainment read, is more important.
