That's the whole problem. Now you have to read the summary and the original, just to verify whether the summary was correct — especially if it's a niche topic (admittedly I'm going by the summary here).



known flawed drafts are useful even if known flawed :) we just need some way to quantify the error rate and gradually bring them down


Maybe for a certain class of low-interest work, i.e. for texts where I don't care that I would miss something interesting. For things I care about, the error rate has to come down to zero or the possibly-flawed draft is really of no use.
