Reading LLM summaries vs raw writing has a similar feel to reading a "popular" social media feed vs a chronological feed.

Often the summary or highlights is what you want but too much and I start craving all the missing details and serendipity.

Reality has a lot of detail and summaries fairly consistently pick the same subsets so unless you go to the reality-level, you're missing 95% of what's actually there.

And the details sometimes matter a lot.
