You're not making much sense here; how does the verbiage surrounding
traditional info xrefs help a novice writer understand Texinfo?

The extra verbiage _does_ make info documents harder to read as simple
documents, which for the great majority of users (who aren't texinfo
authors) is the crucial point.

[and note that Kim's code doesn't change texinfo into html -- links
still have a standard textual form, simply one that's less intrusive
than the traditional form]
