Even after your comment, I do not make that connection. If that was the intent, it fails...e.g, Why not duplicate the site faithfully and just eliminate the comment links?

It succeeds in being 'quiet' (less noisy) in design.

I'm not sure you know what "literally" and "exactly" means, after that comment. Stop using those words just because you disagree vehemently. Here's the "literal" version you haven't imagined:
