Research/Learning Prompt

A framework for deep understanding that cuts through surface-level explanations to expert-level insight.

I want to understand [topic]. I learn best by understanding:

  1. What problem this solves (and what problems existed before it)
  2. The core mechanism (how it actually works, not the marketing version)
  3. Where it breaks down (limitations, edge cases, when NOT to use it)
  4. Who disagrees with the consensus view and why

Don’t give me a Wikipedia overview. Give me what I’d learn after working with this for 6 months.
