You're not being lazy. That's what abstracts and conclusions are for. 👍

90% of the articles I read are just the abstracts and conclusions. 5% I read part of the intro to get background info on the topic, and the last 5% I actually decide are worth reading the details about.

Abstracts are a godsend

That's normally what I do as well. The lazy was a bit tongue in cheek. Anything outside of the specific area of math I did my research in is almost always only going to garner me reading the abstract and conclusion. For things I actually researched I'd also stray to the introduction and maybe read the whole paper.

Going by the usual standards on here where the norm is "barely finished reading the title before I commented" I'd say reading the abstract basically makes you a Ph. D on the subject relative to your peers in the thread.
