Also sometimes when I explain what a hyperphone is well enough for the other person to get it, and then we have a complex conversation, they agree that it would be good. But very small N, like 3 to 5.
It’s difficult to understand your writing, and I feel like you could improve in general at communication based on this quote. The concept of a hyperphone isn’t that complex—the ability to branch in conversations—so the modifiers “well enough”, “complex”, and “very small N” make me believe it’s only complex because you’re unclear.
For example, the blog post you linked to is titled “Hyperphone”, yet you never define a hyperphone. I can infer from the section on streaming what you imagine, but that’s the second-to-last section!

The point of the essay is to describe the context that would make one want a hyperphone, so that
one can be motivated by the possibility of a hyperphone, and
one could get a hold of the criteria that would direct developing a good hyperphone.
The phrase “the ability to branch in conversations” doesn’t do either of those.
