Not a very clear or helpful distinction in my opinion. A bit vague. 🤔
"A treatise is a formal written paper about a specific subject. It’s like an essay but longer. A treatise is usually about a serious subject, so you might read a treatise on democracy, but you probably won't read a treatise about chewing gum."
@JeremyMallin It feels more about level of conviction to me. An essay is when you have a few thoughts on a topic. A treatise is when you have thoughts of such strength and length that people around you are getting uncomfortable.
