Seems reasonable split, although I try to gesture at / share compressed versions of the background knowledge.
Yeah, I asked for this split precisely because, usually with a LessWrong post I already have at least the gist of the background knowledge, and what I really want to know is “what is the new stuff here?”.
But yeah I like the dream of “keep track of the stuff you know, and explain the diff between what you know.” But I think for the immediate future, being able to see at a glance “okay, what background context might I not have that, if I’m lost, I might want to read up on separately?”
