Aha - so you're using CR's to denote end of sentences rather than periods, which would be an interesting evolution for the (written) language.

Grouping related thoughts / points as sentences within a single paragraph still feels more right to me than trying to over-succinctify potentially complex concepts into tiny paragraphs.
