> "slow down and pay attention"

Why do people assume these are always the same thing?

If you read a book at 1/10 your normal speed, I imagine your reading comprehension would drop significantly. It's harder to focus on something when you're constantly distracted by its inappropriate speed, and it's harder to get value out of it when you can't process it in a normal way because you're constantly waiting for the next step.
