In principle yes, but you can use the 'N' command to go to the next group,
and nn will remember how far you got selecting articles from the menu/
reading the articles you  have selected, and offer you to 'use old
selections' when you enter the group next time (or uses it silently if
you reenter it in the same invokation of nn).

Perhaps it is your reading style that is perplexing :-)
I don't think nn is very well suited for your reading style.  So either
you adapt to nn's linear style, or you stick to rn.
