Claude needs a bad first draft before it can be pushed into a usable report

The author adds that Claude seems to need the bad first draft before it can be guided into a better report.
- Even with instructions, it still tends to produce a terrible over-conclusive draft first.
- Only after that can the user go back and ask it to dismantle and fix the report.
- The author also notes that Claude’s added memories do not reliably carry over to the next report, so the problem keeps recurring.
