Well said. We are all interested in thinking, deducting, analyzing, pondering about the meanings of the story or wondering “what if…”. A good chunk of our enjoyment is of intellectual nature.

We don’t just like to reach the conclusions, we enjoy the thoughts that led us to them and if these thoughts required time, that’s part of the pleasure.
