Goldberg's Law

Goldberg's Law suggests that the more general a piece of information is, the less specific it tends to be. In other words, broad statements often lack precise details and depth. This concept highlights a tendency in general knowledge that when trying to encompass a wide range of topics or ideas, important nuances may be overlooked. Consequently, while general knowledge can provide a foundational understanding, it may not always deliver the intricacies needed for deeper comprehension or practical application. Goldber’s Law reminds us of the importance of specificity in effective communication and understanding.
