Essentially, I read this as an attempt at continental philosophy rather than analytic philosophy, and I don't find continental-style work very interesting or useful.

That's your personal opinion about their works. Continental rationalists have been useful to so many.

I believe you that the post is meaningful and thoughtful, but the costs of time or effort to understand the meanings or thoughts you're driving at are too high for me at least.

So you'd dismiss any work based on the return on investment ratio?

I think trying to lay things out in a more organized and explicit manner would be helpful for your readers and possibly for you in developing these thoughts.

Not all thoughts need to be explicit, especially when describing links between ideas.

Have you ever watched the series Connections <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connections (TV_series)>? If not I would highly advise watching it.
