It is like when someone is being sued in court and claims in the press that they have turned over X thousands of pages of documents.

When you really dig into those documents you find 90%+ of them are completely irrelevant (old phone books, Chinese takeout menus, etc.) and that the few important ones that would actually shed light on the case, are missing.

Ragie (a RAG company) published an interactive chatbot that lets you ask questions about the JFK files. It’s pretty interesting, they had to do a lot of OCR on old docs to get it to a usable state.

It predates the files release by about ten years but I found Robert Cairo's latest book on LBJ, 'The Passage of Power' pretty enlightening on the coverup (not the crime).

Anything suprising would be redacted anyway.
