Wow. I like to think of myself as a Young Person who is With the Times but then I read stuff like this and realize how quickly things get weird when you're not paying attention. This article does a good job tackling this bizarre niche, even for novice readers (read: me, etc.). New enough (July 18), long enough (11,048 characters), offers neutral and broad coverage, well cited throughout, one possible instance of copyvio but the source is a YouTube video that more likely copied the article's content and not vice versa, hook 156 characters, interesting, cited in Bloomberg ref and in article. @Masem: QPQ still needed, otherwise ready to go.
