Why does it randomly say "Writing matters" in English?

Just like people in English speaking countries get things tattooed on them in Chinese, I can only imagine that the reverse is true. Things are apparently trendier if you make them sound foreign.

Sure it does. Similar to roman characters--you can see the green button at lower left is using a sans-serif font.

I'm not sure what you're asking here? The articles are sinocentric in the same manner Medium articles are typically occidental in nature.
