I think MYZ was referring to his comment rather than Daphne’s and saying that that one couldn’t be halved in length without substantial loss. (But I disagree. “Your first email might be formal but later ones between ~equals usually aren’t. I bet no one at Lightcone is writing a lot of emails like the one above. Abbreviation and slang surely don’t give a 2x shortening—do you have an example?” That’s from 826 bytes to 237 bytes. My condensation is fairly extreme and loses nuances but is still full sentences with complete words and the reduction is substantially more than 2x.)
