1. The original link was to the source, which I would think would take precedence over a second-party review of it, even a skilled one like Levine's.
2. The source's actual title is "Credit Suisse Group Special Committee Of The Board of Directors Report On Archegos Capital Management". The editorizialized title ""Postmortem in finance: How Credit Suisse lost $6B [pdf]" isn't bad, includes a [pdf] warning, and is more descriptive of the content for anyone not aware that Archegos lost $6b of CS's capital. And how they lost it is certainly interesting.
3. Maybe if you change a post link from the original source, also link the source back in the comments. Levine includes it in his article below the fold [1][2], at least, but that might not always be the case. Lots of web writers these days like to write about reports and studies without actually linking to it.

A 170 page report isn't a really useful thing to drop on anyone especially if they don't already know what's happening. This article has a good summary of what happened and includes a link to the report if you want to see it.
I agree with dang that the Bloomberg article is more useful than the report itself, but the moderation action does not seem to be in line with the actual guidelines.
