I noticed myself that this particular essay was harder to read than his usual output, but I suppose even anti-woke academics are still academics at heart.

Unlike Lindsay, I only have a basic undergraduate degree. As a student I learned quickly that I would be penalised for submitting work like that, if not for the bad style then for not being able to answer a question within the word limit. Like most students I had to digest a lot of dense technical arguments in academic texts. None were written in such a poor style. It's just sloppy writing.
