I agree, I think for shared docs easy edit-ability/instant-autosave is an antipattern that encourages less-thoughtful editing and hurts their purpose as a long-term store of knowledge. The places I've worked that have really leaned into that part of Notion (vs just like Notion as a nativeish-app/snappier Wiki) were all overly ADHD in their approach to planning and work in general, too.
There's a certain sort of worker that really leans into that as their version of "easy async collaboration" but is actually just putting the burden on the recipients to make sense of the author's journey and thought process, instead of putting more effort into more-infrequent-but-more-curated updates.
