Well, I somewhat agree. A list like this definitely isn’t very useful all by itself. The utility I imagine is in figuring out where the gaps in your knowledge are, and what you need to do better. If my goal is to live life as well as possible, I don’t just want to read a bunch of sequences; I also want to figure out which sequences I should read.
You say that you question the value of compressed information like this as a roadmap. Do you think that a different type of roadmap may be more useful, or that a roadmap may not be useful at all?
