I think this is less about informing the general population about scientific findings and more about collaboratively reducing the workload of individual researchers by improving their ability to navigate the terrain of past research. Pop sci might useful for a very broad overview but not quite technical enough in scope - I suppose it's a matter of balance between too simplified and too chaotic.

That does make more sense, yeah. I wonder how much of a demand there really is for that, though, given that people doing research probably want more of a cursory understanding of a given area before doing research in it, though. But I'm not a scientist, so who knows.
