I’m sorry, my language was unclear. When I said it was equivalent to results been returned in alphabetical order, I was referring to the library being ordered by the Dewey Decimal system. In this respect the librarian is acting as an L2 data cache and benefiting from the relatively static nature of the content in order to map spatial memory onto the corpus. In reality, the computer files which you care to organise and access frequently are changing often, whereas the need to physically shuffle major sections of a library would happen perhaps once or twice every decade. As for the increasing complexity of operating systems, I simply outright reject the claim that macOS Monterey is more complex of a user experience than, say, Snow Leopard from over a decade ago. What the operating system does and the features it contains a massively greater, but the experience exposed to the user is incredibly similar.
