Well you see, if we made people read that irrelevant first sentence, and the beginning of the following paragraph, their heads might explode.

Probably for their own use, for whenever they'd come back to glance again the book. In fact, it might have helped them to find the page if they chose to post it to social media some time afterwards.

For a line or two, sure, but for that long I'd just mark the beginning and ned of the passage or maybe just draw a line in the margin the length of the info.
