A note on forests (Recruitment)
Maybe we happen to hit on a verbal tic you have? Most of us have them.
I'm a decent writer. As a speaker I'm hit or miss. Ask Claude.
A big chunk of our discussion was you arguing the logic and my arguing for what is the clearest communication. Editors think about the latter, and by the latter I mean, we generally believe that anything that impedes understanding or distracts the reader in the slightest from the main idea that you're trying to convey needs to be removed or revised. Many people think that many words are interchangeable. It's our job to think about the ways in which they are not.
