Uh that sounded quite interesting, but it seems to bury the lede from the title and go off on side-tracks right away. Didn't finish it because I got ultra-distracted by the inline recommendations of ... the same article.

It lists:

- BY THE SAME AUTHOR "How knitters got knotted in a purity spiral" BY GAVIN HAYNES

- SUGGESTED READING "How knitters got knotted in a purity spiral" BY GARETH ROBERTS

- SUGGESTED READING "How knitters got knotted in a purity spiral" BY DOUGLAS MURRAY

- SUGGESTED READING "How knitters got knotted in a purity spiral" BY ANTONIA SENIOR

- SUGGESTED READING "How knitters got knotted in a purity spiral" BY TITANIA MCGRATH

- SUGGESTED READING "How knitters got knotted in a purity spiral" BY GILES FRASER

I can't even begin to guess how stuff like that happens, must be some epic bug in their CMS, or some weird A/B attempt to ... fool people into reading the same article many times? And where does it get the author names, one wonders. AI-backed publishing system gone crayzay?
