"I couldn't possibly write this any better."
Bullshit. You could've:
1. Had an introductory page or two where you lay out, in broad terms, what your argument is, perhaps with a quick reference to what other work(s) you based it on
2. Took a page or two for each section of the argument itself
When I complain about readability, it's not just your writing style, it's that you simply dumped a poorly formatted (for an internet forum... know your medium/audience) screed on us.
Ultimately, I really don't care. I tend to avoid philosophy because I find it so dreadfully boring. It always seems to devolve into pedantic nitpicking with very little practical value. My curiosity was piqued for a brief moment, but frankly I have better things to do.
