When we read an article, what do we look at?
Creativity and sharp words are like skin. They beautify the article.
The knowledge the author presents is like flesh. Arguments, hypotheses, conclusions, opinions etc. are what we learn from the author.
The methodology is bone. If we look past the knowledge presented, we might be able to see the method/approach with which the author employs to reach what s/he presents. What we learn from methodology can be re-used to establish our own reasoning.
We want to get the most out of an article by examining each and every layer of it.
