I wouldn't say the 45k words were any more well considered. I just managed to finish less days and was always playing catchup.
It also wasn't quite a stream of consciousness. I did have specific things I talked about, usually written as a quick bulleted list in a notes app to remind me ahead of time because I was always days or weeks behind anyway.
It's just that I was trying to explain full game ideas and the thought processes that led me to the different ideas I was trying with game prototypes, what worked and what didn't, and also served as a rough game manual when I wanted to revisit the game idea later (which I've done several times).
Also I tend to be pretty verbose, which is evident by my Hacker News and Reddit comments.
