Well said! I'll try to do that. I used to do that in fact, but
typing has the curious effect on me of helping me to think inventively
(I grew up on a typewriter so to speak) so that I have a tradeoff
between the benefits of organizing well for the reader and thinking
about new discoveries. I'll just have to do better eventually.
Hopefully, I won't reach a "law" like the one in Hitchhiker's Guide to
the Galaxy according to which (if we believe the hippo-like judges)
"resistance is futile" :>)
