You were indeed wrong; specific concrete study results and advice are much more valuable than pointing things out and setting things up. Begin in medias res, open with the concrete example before doing any abstract discussion, and prioritize study results over general discussion. I'd actually suggest retracting or Discussing this post until you can include the concrete results.
Thanks for letting me know. I was in a weird, restless mood yesterday and just rushed through it, I guess. The primary source for all of this actually has a lot of concrete examples, but I went with just one or two and a couple of high-level comments. Maybe I can salvage the post by including more direct quotes of concrete analysis and beefing up the 'specific recommendations' section?
"Rewrite" more than "salvage" since I'd also delete a lot of the abstractions, but yes, and meanwhile I'd again recommend retracting the post while working on it (save back in your Drafts folder).
Substantial rewrite, complete. Thanks for advising me rather than downvoting and moving on, I think it's a better piece now.
