No, it was simply that I criticized Kaj_Sotala for posting links without summarizing by posting a link I didn't summarize. You're right that it's not as big a deal for people familiar with the post from the title, but...

(p.s. the "inconvenient" link describes how a trivial inconvenience - like finding an internet proxy or sending an email before posting - can act quite effectively as a major barrier to an action. Implied is that following the links to see what Kaj_Sotala is reviewing positively is a similar inconvenience, and therefore might lead to the post being unfairly ignored.)
