That's what happens, when you change the point of writing excersise from understanding language to sounding interesting.
In this case it's a sign that the articles were written by ChatGPT.
@NEETzsche
Before I got assigned my batchelor thesis, the longest text I ever wrote was 2 pages.
And then, they asked me to write 50. No thought is worth 50 pages of text.
You must hate books.
@NEETzsche
Books are mostly not scientific articles though.
When it comes to USEFUL data, it should be made readable. Describing how you gathered data and what the results were is not a 50 page task.
Nah, I don't agree with that. The point of the abstract is to give some kind of summary if you don't care about all the niggling details. The body of the article is those details. So the expectation that you can expound is a worthwhile one, even if it's only as an exercise.
@NEETzsche
I guess I could give 3 pages to the terminology, and 2 to the results, but I still think, that 45 pages of abstract is a bit insane 
It's mostly an exercise. I bet the best criticism is the subject you had didn't merit 50 pages of shit. It's also worth noting that the longer lengths are informed in part by a previous era where people weren't used to soundbytes. It's literally generational.
It isn't that zoomers are incapable of learning things. It's that you tend to prefer to learn things in smaller units. Not 50pg infodumps.
@NEETzsche
No, my problem is, that my subject was an IT.
There are only 2 ways of explaining a topic. When you write a structured text, every word, sentence and concept are connected to each other in such a way, that information given is growing exponentially with word count.
Or.... you can talk like a woman.
