I like your idea of adopting the Economist house style, but a lot of kids
are taught in schools to write unimaginably long, tedious essays on quite
trivial subjects, so they have to learn how to trim out the waffle when
they
come to writing for real readers.
Is anything too trivial for Wikipedia, if it is to become "the sum of all
human knowledge"?
