Comics readers rely on loads of visual signals to catch the sense of the action, the mood, the intangibles, and so much of that's been erased in this one.

Still, the upvotes / downvotes tend to have the final say IME...

Yeah makes sense

I think it's novel, but not like, enjoyable as a comic.

A "huh, neat" then forget about it after taking a cursory glance kinda thing.

I think that's fair. As someone reading through one of Scott McCloud's commentary on comics right now, your edits are actually pretty interesting to me, and there's loads to unpack about the framing, the structure, the known details, etc.

Just that I don't represent the common reader, lol.

Oh this isn't my edit, the source edit is linked however... In fact I'll edit the title to make that clear
