I feel it put a name on the idea that I had been thinking about after first revisiting anki and spaced repetition in 2021/02. With spaced repetition, memory is a choice. That same idea translates to consumption in the form of incremental reading. From there, I imagine that this cognitive optimization way of interacting with information may have even larger implications (the size of those implications has expanded thanks to andy matuschak coining this term).
