Sep 18, 2018 at 15:31 | comment | added | user56reinstatemonica8 | I never said that vagueness implies criticism: I said that a thin and generic premise implies the speaker sees little of interest in the work. A detailed but dull premise would imply a dull work: "Three generations of a Vermont family watch eight different types of paint dry" is specific, but it doesn't sound like the summariser has found much interest or engagement. "A family's tensions and secrets spill over during home redecoration" is more vague, but implies the summariser found some drama and engagement. | |
