Yes, a large portion of readers will never click on a talk page. We
should accept that.
Also though, readers may not need to know some of the more technical
things about an article, trivia being a good example. There aren't
many in my view that are bad, but a few. I don't think it's a huge
problem, TFD can handle it. :)
