Internal Feedback Round 3B from Google Poll 05.12-08.12

Thoughts

• The illustration can be improved, it’s not giving much to the topic
• Why attack the reader as being messy?
• It is too technical
• Missing context:
  • Why do we need that?
  • Is the remark with MySQL necessary?
  • Is MySQL clear for the readers?
• Interesting topic

Ideas

• Add a brief, non-technical explanation of how the B+ Tree structure works (e.g., "data is organized in sorted order, making it easy to search and update quickly").

A general comment:

Just because something is listed in the feedback, does not mean you have to implement it.
This list is simply a collection of everything commented in the google poll.
I tried to structure the comments and merge similar ones and count how often this point was mentioned.
If a comment says "I think", this is not me (Carina), but someone who commented on the poll.
