To me, it looks like a project worth believing in, despite what might be considered to be a substantial lack of glamour. Perhaps, one way of looking at it is that the author knew it was right and useful and pushed the rules...incidentally, the sort of rules where nobody is going to get hurt.

To put it another way, I suspect that submitting the same thing about once a month or so, is line noise when it comes to spamming Hacker News. And if the content were bad it probably would have been flagged to death at least once. It hasn't been, because it's good but unnoticed.

It could be it went rather unnoticed because each submission wasn't tweeted to a bunch of friends for upvotes, it never was submitted to product hunt, and the author doesn't search engine optimize on Medium.

And anyway, as this comment by me illustrates, meta discussion is often dull. Hence, generally discouraged by Hacker News Guidelines.
