&quot;Just the facts, ma&#x27;am.&quot;<p>I often see writing (especally from engineers) that is meant to be informative that is overwhelmed with irrelevant information. That is difficult to parse. Sometimes you want to pick out just a few relevant facts and leave out anything that isn&#x27;t strictly needed so your audience understands the point.<p>It depends on your audience and you reason for writing what sort of information is needed and what is not needed. Its not an easy skill.
