The New Yorker was blocked on China mainland. So only traditional Chinese character area (HK, TW, MAU) can access this article. This is really weird.

You’re overthinking it. 1) There are a lot of simplified readers abroad and 2) the scripts overlap enough to be comprehensible to HK/Taiwan readers. Most likely nobody thought twice about it + translator’s comfort.

I can’t believe someone replied saying the simplified script doesn’t matter. I know many people (myself included) who grew up on traditional Chinese that react negatively to simplified Chinese, even if content is good. They call it “殘體字 incomplete script” for a reason.
