>Amazing how a few sentences can do more than entire blog posts sometimes.

A long form article is more likely to try to make many points at the same time, some strong, some weak, some wrong ones.

Comments are usually short, making only one point. Furthermore they're sorted and filtered by popularity. This means that strong, pithy statements are displayed much more prominently.

Likewise this article could use some editing.

What do you mean by "this article could use some editing"? It should have less ideas, fixing the spelling and grammar mistakes, or something else?
Spelling and grammar mistakes are one thing. Mainly though the article lacked focus.
