A developer argues Muse's side threads exemplify an opinionated design decision reflecting meticulous attention to detail, versus OpenAI's weaker execution of Dot.
He says returning to Dot gives no visual orientation around what it remembers — even asking it to resume a previous "thread" stays confusing. His conclusion: Dot's magic lives in the voice-first experience, and memory management falls apart outside it.
