Dec 13, 2019 at 20:50 comment added guntbert may I ask you to reconsider (6): think of people who use screen readers, braille-lines,...: "this link" is completely useless to them while a short description helps a lot.

Dec 12, 2019 at 12:48 comment added schrodingerscatcuriosity An example of readability IMO is this very post. I highlited with bold the key parts, which draws the attention to what has to be answered.
Dec 12, 2019 at 12:44 comment added schrodingerscatcuriosity Bold text is frequently misused. This is where I think is a matter of perception. For me it is a tool that used well can improve the readability of a post by highliting key concepts. And then then to separate sections you can use the markdown #, with the advantage of larger font size. But of course I prefer to follow the consensus, and as I said in the post, also want consistency.
Dec 12, 2019 at 12:35 comment added schrodingerscatcuriosity Thanks for your reply. The none string at the beginning of the code fence markdown suppresses text highlighting. Good to know! Block quotes should be used for quoting excerpts of text. Recently I was corrected (by @Eliah Kagan) in a post, from code to quoting, related to a warning message of the OS. This is an example of things that confuse me.
