"Considered Harmful" is a signifies that the text will be forceful and opinionated. I have nothing against balance and thoroughness, but many authors confuse those qualities with mealy-mouthedness and passive-aggressiveness. When I see "Considered Harmful" I know that the text will have a conclusion that isn't basically "I see some pro's and con's but I don't know guys, maybe more research is needed?".
Yes, "Considered Harmful" articles may be a little tactless and imbalanced, but they are usually also concise, honest, informative and funny. Those qualities are important to me.
