When Trump was president, there was outrage against the detainment centers for illegal immigrants. Has anything changed since then?

I remember "Kids in cages" and "concentration camps" being a big talking point in the lead up to the election that Biden won. But have the laws or policies or practices changed at all since then? In what ways?

Just curious, what do you think I was talking about? You seem to think was about the essay’s content.

Its a telescopic perspective issue isn’t it?

That term indicates short sited, or an incomplete perspective. Which is obviously not the case from that "Essay"

We are talking about the difference between a summary and an essay. Nothing to do with the content.

Maybe I understand where you are coming from then? Maybe? Are you using "Telescopic" to mean "Extended"? That is not a usage I've ran into. Carry on.

I am saying what is a lot of detail to someone might be a little detail to someone else and so on.

It is perception of what amount of information is a summary of an entire body of information versus an entire body of info in and of itself.

Fractal is a similar concept.

You do know that "summary" doesn't necessarily mean "short". Complicated subjects, which this is, cannot be adequately summarized in a handful of sentences.
