No, it's not a choice. It's mostly subjective and up to them to judge, but it's a judgement based on the merits.

Writing is hard, and there are very good reasons people work with experts to make things about themselves.

Hmmm… okay you are making the distinction between judgement and discretion and saying I’m wrong to categorize this as discretion.

Upon reflection, I think you are right.

> writing is hard

Oh definitely. I’ve certainly had the experience of Lin-Manuel Miranda expressing something more clearly than I can.
