That's not really true. While "brevity" may be "the soul of wit[0]," making a point may require elucidation, since details actually matter.
And short declaratives (like the one I'm replying to) elide most, if not all, nuance.
If you reduce everything to a soundbite (or a tweet, for that matter), you miss out on the nuance and complexity of most things.
Just sayin'.
