Disagree. I read the first two before I read the sequences and I definitely learned an immense amount from reading the sequences that I did not already know.

Yes, but how valuable were those additional things you learned? What percentage would you estimate, if not 80%?

Easily the most valuable thing I've read in my life, I would say. (I am also eighteen and don't read a lot.)
