On first blush I thought this was a knowledgebase article. I guess all MSDN blogs have to look homogeneous now.

Consistent look is great. Lets me get on with reading the content, which is the important part.

There's no excuse for breaking existing links though, particularly for a blog as popular as this one.

Consistent look is great for consistent content. But if the content is different, having a different look helps the user get to the content.

Some of the variants of the links are broken, acknowledged via blog post: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20160118-01/?p=...

Oh, I guess they fixed it. It was broken before.
