A dot point list would have made this more readable. Just saying.

It may be in a scientific paper, but this is more of an anecdote about the various issues the author encountered, rather than something intended to be actionable and clearly delineated as you’d expect in the body of a scientific article. Therefore a more literary style is appropriate for this section.

My mental model is that bullet points are for when you expect a reader to go over the points with a highlighter, prose for when you want to produce an emotional response. This feels more like the latter.

Yeah i agree with you. I feel like prose is for free-style text, which doesn't claim to be rigorous. Bullet points always feel like there's more rigor involved.
