SHORT POST ABOUT LONG POSTS
Basically the short version is
People will tend to ignore long posts (for various reasons). Sometimes chicken, sometimes overvaluing their time in constant TL;DR mode.

LONGER PART ABOUT LONG POSTS
But at same time they might answer short posts with yes no answers never realising how question they have been ask might mean thing differently or answers without checking become cheaper the shorter the discussion is... what isn't discussion is often just authority or ultimatum or avoidance, fear, etc... unless you both know what you are talking about they you might miss points but seem to get the answers.
That's why sometimes you have to ask and work through it (together!). Humanity is not a simple one way only thing and practising also helps others (so no use if you are just goo by yourself or 1 or two people, you'd still have to mingle).
But the short answers *seem* to answer it but don't answer it if it needs depth or is relative in other ways.

I feel that this implies an expectation to read an entire post even if it is utter garbage that makes no sense and could likely be made intentionally undecipherable.
Shorter posts often get read more because it requires less time to read about something that a consumer might not hold an interest in. Whereas longer posts require more incentive to sacrifice time to potentially suffer mental fatigue throughout.
A well-written presentation could be a significant tool to help make it easier for consumers to follow through walls of text that they would normally pivot away from. There are other possible options that can be utilized, but that's a course in writing and composition and I am not a teacher.
