In UI design, the user's attention is limited and valuable. I'm always doing things to minimize distractions and emphasize key information. The common problem is that there's so much information/data/content to offer that most people want to show everything.
However, revealing everything spreads the user's attention in every little area. There is no concentrated focus on any one thing. As a result, the user doesn't really absorb what they're reading deeply. They don't absorb information in a detailed way because there's something else they have to click around the corner.
To improve human attention designers have to say no to displaying certain things and focus on the few that's essential. This is easier said than done, but needs to be done.
