That's interesting. "More ways to re-chunk" ?? Sounds right, to make data 
and concepts of that data more explicitly re-chunkable ?? That loop, to 
re-do fragment size & scope, I think fits human meaning making process 
better than idea of "getting it right"--which completely overlooks we are 
inherently iterative.

FWIW, In my own case, I am very interested in facilitating associative 
thinking. For example have a wiki of thousands of phrases (sub sentence) 
that you can randomise and then transclude and save interesting combos of. 
Repeat at will.

Basically, a William Burroughs "cut-up" machine. That use of random 
"fragments" supports associative cognition and pattern (new story) 
recognition in a helpful low overhead way.
