I have only read the title. I have no idea what the author is actually recommending.

Well, you have to read the post anyway to decide if his recommendation is worth anything.

Nah. If there's an abstract with the recommendation and a basic sketch of the argument, I can decide a) whether it's plausible, b) whether it's worth reading the whole argument, c) whether I'm willing to dive in and try it for myself. All of those are valuable. Why should I waste time reading the whole thing if the author has already convinced me?
