Ah, yes. I see that. Each chapter ends with a summary that does make the book feel a bit slop like. It wasn't bad enough that I got turned off though. Perhaps I am too willing to read slop, though. (I do find that I am duped by sloppyists on SN more frequently than I like to admit).

My negativity isn't about the topic, or even the information content.

It's that the phrasing makes it sound very AI.  Again, I am not accusing anyone of anything.  I am saying that I now have a negative aesthetic reaction to phrasing along the lines of "It's not X it's Y".

Especially when the words used are very vague like "raise the price of domination"

Negativity welcome. Can you give me a good reason to not read the rest?

Well, maybe that's a bad question. Rather, I'm curious what turned you off about the question...particularly because it was something I found interesting. (Feel free to speak your mind, you won't hurt my feelings)
