you by design.
The score stays at 6.8 because the gaps are material. Writing focus is real; missing light/apps and price feel like a step back. Do not round this up in your head.
Who is this actually for?
It is for writers and strategists who will pay for focus. The Paper Pure will feel like it was made for that week.
Skip if you need front light, apps, or a cheaper e-note. Wrong buyer, wasted budget.
One concrete move: Trial Paper Pure for two flight weeks before you replace every notebook.

Why does it cost more for less?

Should marketers seed or recommend the Paper Pure?
Recommend it with the 6.8 caveats attached. Do not pitch it as perfect.
