kinda ad-hominem. I disagree with the approach that somehow advancing the discussion a half-step by calling attention to an important piece of the article (rather than taking the full step of going on to research it) is unproductive or should be called out.

I agree, calling attention to the statistic is probably better than no mention at all. But I think the site is better with citations, and it does strike me as lazy to ask others rather than providing for others. I don't mean to be too mean about it, but I am confused by the approach. As in, would the site be better or worse if everyone took the same approach?
