i will just give a fresh counterargument I encountered yesterday. when trying to reset my Passat service warning, you got to press a combination of button, hold a few seconds, etc. I spent about an hour yesterday looking for the right combination, for the right model of Passat produced in the right year. A freaking hour of wasted time. Been doing that every 2 year or something for the past decade. You have no idea how many times I angered if only I had taken 30 seconds the last time to put the right YouTube link in an obsidian note. Even if the second brain is messy, it's still your mess. Internet is even a bigger mess than that. And to that, I'd add that a second brain should behave like a real brain in the way that our brain get rid of (what it thinks) is useless. Your note should reflect on that and be cleaned up once a while for things that are not relevant anymore and should be disregarded, it doesn't negate the advantage of the second brain tho which is that it's able to retain much more information and even file. Good luck embedding a pdf or a tax report in your brain.
