Without getting too specific it helped me do a few things (I know your question is about learning) however. First, it let me mend fences with people who I hadn't talked to in a while and I learned that it was easy to reconnect by doing something like this because it makes it very easy and lowers the social friction.
I also saw a few broad themes like being disorganized, thinking big but failing to execute, lack of ambition, etc. Some overlap, and some were smaller issues. I reckon I will actually write it up, depending how significant the other half of the results are.
On balance, it is a good way to reconnect with people and also see if there are broad negative attributes you were missing. I also wrote a few responses to people who asked for me to do it in return, so it gives you a chance to help others and yourself if your close friend has a really annoying quality you wish he would work through.
