Well, the existing pages have rather short snippets on that issue. If
there were to be pages which explain the issues at hand in a more
verbose way, then one can edit out the snippets and link to the more
verbose pages. I think that this is a good idea to avoid multiplication.

I think that extending stuff into own articles is a great way to reach
the goal you showed in your last sentence ...

IMHO at least.
