    Why? That would only be the case if the original works already were the pinnacle of text quality and information density, which is quite a stretch.

      There’s no such thing as an optimal book. Unless it’s a textbook maybe. Different authors have different styles.

      The purpose of a novel is not to dryly convey information. It’s to make you think and feel something different.
