But that's the problem. Unique, quirky mannerisms become polished out. Flaws are smoothed and over sharpened. I'm personally not as gloomy about it as the parent comments but I fear it's a trend that pushes towards a samey, mass-produced style in all writing. Eventually there will be a counter culture and backlash to it and then equilibrium in quality content but it's probably here to stay for anything where cost is a major factor.
