There is a Bowie song with an audio clip: "I don't want knowledge! I want certainty!" The ability to hold many pieces of information in mind at once and consider what explanations may include them all and can also be probable is sorely lacking in people raised with screens and multiple choice quizzes. Everyone wants to think faster, not better.

That’s it exactly.
Love the plot of the book you described.
Business idea: charge people to read books like this one and discuss them with you, and call it a "masterclass in nuance" lol
