True, but again - even this pushes some people forward. People see value in that.
I've had a conversation about sloppy thinking with my favorite current thinker Robin Hanson. He says that many people do sloppy thinking and he likes precise thinking. There's a lack of it in this world, but it's hard to recognize and even spread.
We are used to read short "tweet" sized bites, shorten complex topics in "ted talks", reels and short videos. When you write a well argued 50 page blog, no one reads it.
So in this world, sloppy thinking can deliver value in the same way that tarot cards (a random number generator) can just take you out of the idea loop you're stuck in. In this regard, it's more valuable that it's different than what people are stuck with than a real intellectual quality.
