How I learned to stop worrying and structure all writing as a list
If you&#x27;re leaning towards stripping all your writing down to list form, you may want to read Tufte&#x27;s analysis on the role PowerPoint (aka writing everything in the form of bulleted lists) played in the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster [0]. I used to write exclusively in bulleted list&#x2F;outline format until spending time with Tufte&#x27;s analysis. Now I get that the connective tissue of the document is vitally important to the reader even if it&#x27;s not important to the writer. If you don&#x27;t put in the connective tissue, your reader has to do it for you and they&#x27;ll probably do it incorrectly (leading to, for example, the failure to prevent the Challenger disaster).<p>[0]<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.inf.ed.ac.uk&#x2F;teaching&#x2F;courses&#x2F;pi&#x2F;2016_2017&#x2F;phil&#x2F;tufte-powerpoint.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.inf.ed.ac.uk&#x2F;teaching&#x2F;courses&#x2F;pi&#x2F;2016_2017&#x2F;phil&#x2F;...</a>
