    Yes, data not transmitted is data you don't have to transmit.

    Potentially a very minor improvement, as you don't need to load the article - but I can guarantee that in this day and age, that's definitely *not* the reason why these models are used (nor should it be.)

    Yes, if comments are outsourced as a separate [internal or external] services. Also, looks cleaner.

    Because, they can put more ads, when you're redirected to the comment section.
