Challenge: Tell me you have never read a thoughtful and contextualizing scholarly archival study without saying so.

Solution: "Dump it in a database and let AI sort it out"

If the available options are:

1. Purchase an out-of-print copy of a scholarly archival study on ebay for $100+

2. Load the original raw contents into an LLM and perform the analysis myself

I think the freedom to choose would be a massive benefit. It doesn't prevent you from doing what you want to do.
