Take a look at how many articles on the frontpage today today don't follow those principles.
For instance the current #1 post - "Living in a van" - has one mention of Priceonomics in the article, no explanation of the service, and no call to action within the story content.
Not saying that this isn't obvious, just saying that despite it being obvious people don't necessarily employ those strategies and are tossing out a huge number of potential new users as a result.
