      I think we can help people who need help without re-writing classic novels. Who are you thinking would be benefited by this? I wonder if I could suggest some other technology or approach which does help them without rewriting an author’s works.

        firstly, so you hate all Reader’s Digest abridged books, then? This isn’t a new concept.

        As for who, from what everyone else has already written, so I don’t have to come up with anything original to defend: non-native English speakers learning the language. People with reading disabilities. Honestly, just spend a little while reading through some of the comments which address your “but I lack imagination and any concept of people different to me” issue. plenty of good answers here.
