This analogy doesn't make sense to me. Once I've had a conversation, it may be useful to refer back to it shortly afterwards, but typically the output is some code (or maybe a recipe or instructions for something or whatever). It's certainly important to me that I can use that code elsewhere. That's the thing that, to me, is analogous to being able to switch operating system and still access my files or use my favourite word processing program.

But being able to decode the blobs that subagents returned in a conversation I've already forgotten about? That doesn't affect my ability to switch at all! I can't even imagine what trivial detail of an operating system this is analogous to. Maybe an undo buffer of a document that gets cleared on exit anyway?

I can still pass all my code, and any associated documentation, to any other agent at any time. What am I missing?
