I think the author's sentiment here is different. There's a personal subjectiveness when it comes to things like recipes. It could come down to the presentation (photos, narrative), an added ingredient in one that piques your interest and curiosity (a chili recipe with dark cocoa powder?!), or other subjective difference that is experienced differently by each of us.
The other aspect is mental bookmarking or "what ifs". Maybe I'll try this recipe this time, but I might come across other recipes I want to try some other time or I'll find an author that I really vibe with. That process of discovery is lost with LLMs today
