This word really isn't appropriate. (Similar to my thoughts here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9572254 ).

The article here is interesting, approachable and good. Of course, your links add to it, it's the source mentioned in the first paragraph. But we can still read interesting secondary sources.

It doesn't add anything significant that's not in the original article. Worse, unlike most blogspam, it doesn't even directly link to the original article.

And, bafflingly, it doesn't even give examples of all the fonts.

All right. Though I thought the mention was pretty explicit, and a good summary of the research there. I also thought it's a super-quick read, and I learned something.
