This is a legitimate use case for LLM, though.
Not everyone can communicate clearly. Not everyone can summarize well. So the panel on the right is great for the people on the other end, who must read your poorly-communicated thoughts.
At the same time, some things must look like you put careful thought and time into your words. Hence, the panel on the left.
And if people on both sides are using the tool to do this, who's really hurt by that?
Yes, but there is a real risk here that either the expansion added false details or the summary is wrong, especially the summary.
I don't disagree, but most business emails aren't quite that strict.
It's not about formality. It is about the introduction of error. Less strict communication is more likely to have such errors introduced.
