Improving the readability of Habr?

Each individual hub has a lot of different topics, several dozen per page. And now I have a desire to view all the topics in a particular branch, for example "Web development". In order to find the titles of articles that are interesting to me in this hub, I have to scroll through 40 pages (let's say 20 topics per page, 800 topics in the hub approximately). Moreover, the introduction to the topic before the Habrakat section, I do not start reading if the title of the article did not interest me. The wish actually lies in the fact that you can optionally disable the description for topics and get a regular list of topics on the pages of habravets, like on a forum, in order to quickly find the article of interest to the reader (of course, when you click on a topic, you can add an output of the article description with the same button "Read more..") As a result, these 800 topics will not fit on 40 pages, Let's say 15. Convenient and fast. Thank you for your attention.
PS It would be interesting to know what other users of Habr think about this idea, would it be convenient or is the existing system more familiar?

They tried to do something similar in the no longer existing version of Habralenta (the second, if now the third). The article had 3 submissions of varying degrees of curtailment; the most folded is the title and signature, 30-40 lines per page, approximately like in QA now. After the developer of this idea left, no one dealt with this format and the entire version was deleted, a year or six months ago.
A similar thing can be seen using a CSS filter (userstyle) that will remove annotation texts

.post .content{display:none}

But the number of records per page will not increase.
Since until now everyone has lived without this format, it can be assumed that the headline is not the main thing for which articles are searched for. They use keyword search more often and sometimes persistent rumors pop up that searching through Google on the site is more effective than the local one.
