I’ve read some books where there where some major developments/ twists that were not clearly stated and not repeated. I had to go back and reread paragraphs to understand. If you read the Bible as a fantasy novel you will come across this several times

I would argue that the "were not clearly stated" is the root cause. There is also difference between repeating some fact a reader could have forgotten and repeating whole paragraphs of fluff.

The internet articles we complain about are in the latter category.
