The first three paragraphs seemed to me devoid of useful content, and, after skimming the post, I was left with a feeling of "So what?" and that it wasn't worth rereading more carefully.

Acknowledge: Initial skimming rather than reading was likely influenced by the number of downvotes already on the post.

If I had simply begun with a brief sentence asking for an open dialogue and then jumped into the definition of the term, do you believe -- currently -- that this might have altered your opinion of the idea of discussing it?

I think that I would have still downvoted it for leaving me with a 'So what?' feeling, but I feel that reducing the length would have made happier.
