01 — The Three Depths
One question, three depths.
The same engine answers at the depth you pick — plain words for a first pass, the mechanics for a student, the caveats for an expert. Switch the level and ask again; the topic stays, the depth changes.
Level 02
Depth two of three
Student
The mechanics, step by step — how the thing actually works, in the order it happens. The default depth.
“How is coffee actually roasted, and how does that change the flavour?”
Level 03
Depth three of three
Expert
The full picture — the fine print, the exceptions and the questions worth asking next.
“Which process, whose terroir, and what do the defects taste like?”
