The AI slop "why" section in the readme is completely useless. I struggle with this too. I start every project doc with a "why" then "overview" section, and AI is still horrendously bad at the "why", filled with vapid corpo/tech startup speak. I usually write the "why" myself, or at least put down the outline to be completed.
