Because they can be more?
Between a book that's entertaining and a book that's entertaining but also thought-provoking, why would you choose the former?

Because there is little to no restriction on books
It's why 99% of books are just absolute shit like seriously most books in a library could be burned and nothing would be lost
But that 1% takes advantage of its freedom and does something great
Books are probably one of the greatest examples of liberty in existence
You can put anything into a book
