I was actually not able to read their example text at all. I had to slow down, to read this slowly word, by word.

I trained myself since my time at university to mark important parts in text (either with text marker in a book or with bold typesetting in a digital text).

I then primarily scan only the bold/colored parts and skip over the non marked parts. So my eye/brain jumped from bold letters to bold letters. As these were not full words, I just had gibberish in my head.

Maybe for the untrained reader this might work. I know that I am just anecdata.
