The conclusion turned out to be that some people thought it should be posted here and some didn’t. GIven that some people found the sequence useful it would have been silly to not give them a chance to read it.
There are three more posts in the sequence so by doing it this way I cut down on the amount that I bombard Less Wrong with the post (I agree that your reasoning would make sense if I made a post which linked to only one post but this post links to three posts—ie. once you read the first post, at the bottom of that it links to the next and so on).
