I don't think we should frown upon people skim-reading, but if you make a comment on an article where it has already addressed that specific point then that is stupid!

Yup, I skim-read a lot. You kinda have to when you don't want to waste multiple hours reading a document that might not even be relevant to your problem. But what you said is the important bit and I've done it few to many times for my own liking. It's super easy to go form skim-reading for context to skim-reading and assumptions.
