I wanted to calibrate myself for how ridiculous it is to ask someone to read the sequences. For example, the King James Bible is 788,280 words. So asking someone to read the sequences is quantitively similar to asking them to read 1.16 bibles.

Even Christians won't read the Bible cover to cover. And they believe the Bible is the word of God, contains all the most important wisdom in existence, and even a magical formula for making them live in paradise...forever! Infinite expected utility: Not enough to make someone read a bible.

We're lucky our target audience is more literate and that our text is way more interesting (and not as morally bankrupt) to read... but still. The number of people willing to read a giant philosophical text the size of the bible based on something like a friend's recommendation is... not so big.
