Very provocative: "If each database frames its contents in an array of narrative claims,  then each one is specific, disputable, and limited. Rather than markers  of failure, however, we might use these idiosyncracies to reawaken us to  the particular experience that that tool offers." Perhaps too dense, though. There are a lot of great phrases here that it might be worth unpacking a little more, starting with the intriguing claim that a database "frames its contents in an array of narrative claims."
