In spaced repetition, it's tempting to ponder per-card cost—"should I pay three minutes over my lifetime to memorize this?" But for me, marginal cards are effectively *free* to add: 1. I review cards in time that'd be dead anyway. 2. I can't add enough cards to fill that time.
Simplest category: 100s or, alas, probably 1000s not written because they’re things I found striking when reading away from a computer, and I failed to follow up (hard to build that workflow).

A more complex category: I just finished a conversation with a person who thinks about the world differently, in a way I find stimulating. What 20 cards can I write? Writing good prompts here requires creativity (though there are some patterns).

how much do you think the creation of the card jump starts the storing to memory-process? People say you can't use others cards--- for this reason? Well what if you and I were both there at the same event? Would that help me use your cards even if you creatively write them?
