This pattern of writing isn't necessarily a criticism; it can also be beneficial. Visit infrequently (thus saving time to use for other worthwhile activities), and you'll receive a summary of his thoughts over a decade, all in a well-organized and smoothly flowing text.
Additionally, if you prefer to skip the historical recap and setting, you can simply start reading from the end.

@ollymeakings, the key point I would have loved to learn was how effective your service was. So by implementing (some / all) of your advice, how much did the conversion increase over next 3 months or so? (with no additional marketing and other implausible but desirable assumptions). You do mention "as I built evidence of the roasts increasing conversion" but leave the evidence hanging. Or perhaps I read the otherwise quite comprehensive piece too hastily. Interesting stuff, thanks for sharing!

Euromomo draws weekly z-values per country. From graph you can get the data. Data says mean of z-scores for weeks 01-45:
Sweden 2.02 Finland -0.10 Norway -0.26
https://www.euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps (notice that mean of z-score per week is not the same z-score for the whole year, as deaths per week have seasonal variance thus are not evenly distributed)

Data was released as a response to FOI request. Finland might be the first country where annual subscription fees for all individual publishers and all major research institutions have been made available, spanning the years 2010-2015 (link to the data can be found through the first link and the last link of the following pages).

And data: https://avointiede.fi/web/openscience/publisher_costs
For example, publisher Taylor & Francis has costs have increased more than 20% per year in 2014 and 2015.
Hilariously neither knows who is sama (Sam Altman, the Drama King of OpenAI), nor do they recognize when they themselves are being discussed.
Reading the responses in full also gives you a glimpse on specific merits or weaknesses of these systems, namely how up to date is their knowledge and lingo, explaining capabilities, and ability to see through multiple layers of referencing. Also showcases whether the AIs are willing to venture guessing to piece together some possible interpretation for hoomans to think about.
