Hmmmm. What do other people think of this idea?
I suspect one reason Eliezer did not do this is that when you make a long list of claims without any justification for them, it sounds silly and people don't pay attention to the rest of the sequence. But if you had first stepped them through the entire argument, they would have found no place at which they can really disagree. That's a concern, anyway.
I am more motivated to read the rest of your sequence if the summary sounds silly than if I can easily see the arguments myself.
