When you see a pointer, you just follow it. Having a piece of text there

I wouldn't put just the Usage section in README.md together with a link
to the proper homepage which contains a similar Usage section, in any
situation, other than to appease the ELPA readme.txt generator.

Like I mentioned, my reasons are mostly social, so I wouldn't mind
having a change, provided all parties agree.
But doesn't putting different information in different places make sense
to you, at least on some level?
For example, http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/company.html includes the
contents of NEWS.md, which looks great.
It could similarly combine README.md and Commentary.
