Very good points,and I am thinking out loud and don't have strong opinions one way or the other. The article I wrote is obviously SN oriented, so I wasn't really thinking about that. I'm thinking more about what indranet posted yesterday:
https://stacker.news/items/185088

or like @DarthCoin 's content.

I think of this site as being modelled on Hacker News. HN was about being the front page of the internet: good content from around the web rising to the surface through updoots.

Maybe I'm old-school, but I wouldn't think of publishing to/on SN, or thinking of it as some form of a Substack thing. To me its about sharing good finds from the www and discussing them. I think there's a comment here already about self-hosting and that sounds like a better way to go imho.

But did I read your piece on Zen and SN and really liked it. So if you want to use SN as a place to publish, please do, it looks like you have some great things to contribute and I look forward to reading more.
