I do find some value in quantification but I resonate with your thoughts. I am curious about ways in which people summarize and take notes when reading books. Do you have any specific quirks or methods for doing so?

I've somewhat shifted my focus from plain note taking to making spaced repetition flashcards (using Anki). I find it to be a lot more effective in aiding memory retention of details.
