I have read his book aside of his many essays, so I can agree his style is lengthy - that's actually the only issue I may have. That doesn't change the fact that his arguments are well-thought and usually supported by references. You don't have to agree with him or like his style, but bringing it down to a 'TLDR' is silly, his writing has more substance than the usual blogosphere content posted around and it's worth taking those few minutes of overhead (instead of scrolling some blabbering on twitter f.ex.).
