Sorry to quote the guidelines, but I've recently been rate-limited on this site for failing to follow them:

Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think a story is spam or off-topic, flag it by clicking on its "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.) If you think a comment is egregious, click on its timestamp to go to its page, then click "flag" at the top.

Parent wasn't complaining about whether on/off topic, they were being critical of the writing style which sadly suffocates the reader. I may not agree with all their complaints, but the article is somewhat over elaborate in its exposition. I found myself skipping over tens of words and sentences to find out what actually happened to this unfortunate soul.
Agreed, the writing was so badly structured, I couldn't follow the narrative and skipped whole paragraphs
