What do you mean by tyranny of the specific?

• ssivark 3mo ago
  Imagine I want to attend a conference in a different country. Google maps might give turn by turn navigation but that is an overwhelming and largely irrelevant mess of details for most planning purposes. Eg: all I might want to know is the different flight legs and the fact that the journey takes 15-18 hours, and not all the turns and traffic lights to get from home to the airport. I want a zoomed out picture, and to be able to fill in detail hierarchically, on demand. Instead, one-step models give you the full high-res local structure of the graph that would have to search through (with too many states and edges).
