MODERATORS
RSS/Atom can contain a summary, or it can be the full article. It's the choice of the website what to put in it. They only put a summary to force you to visit their webpage to serve ads.
I think the use of the word “enabling” is correct.
Many RSS readers will scrape the entire contents from the website
But that's not the purpose of RSS, it's an extra of the client.
