Not "shorter" but "easy-reading".
When removing style sheets associated with a page, you get the plain
text, bigger text letters, no background colours, etc...

Yes, I know what you wanted, just gave you an option that I knew: using
custom style sheets for pages. It is not a "click&run" solution as every
page uses differents layous and styles, so YMMV.

underline links) but changing the whole site default layout for each site
on-the-fly is not something that can be 100% automated ;-(
