Just like knowing the plot of a book does not mean you want to write one yourself does not mean you can't appreciate someone who does write a book.
I can understand you not knowing the plot of the book, since you haven't read it and seem resistant to doing so. The best possible cure for this gap in your knowledge would be to read the book.

Holy shit, it is not a matter of resistance. It is a matter of HOW people as INDIVIDUALS PROCESS information.
It literally amounts to knowing HUMANS as individuals LEARN DIFFERENTLY.
Be it math, history, biology, art, literature. It is a bullshit notion that "sink or swim" is always the way to learn.
If you give me the answers FIRST, that is not cheating to me. If you give me the answers you give me UNDERSTANDING. Cheating is only when you are lying or deceiving someone. It is not lying or cheating to let someone know what they are getting into before they get into something.
