Isn’t the exact point that some things are… not a movie. I don’t think the author is proposing all communication should be in this style. When you’re telling a story, sure, it’s fine to keep people in suspense. But is suspense a tool you should use to communicate to a loved one when you’ve been in an accident?

But we should be more deliberate, and in some settings use the inverted pyramid structure to eliminate suspense from our communication.
