I would argue that a brief, broadly encompassing feed has its advantages when it’s not being driven into lunacy. Discussions on Twitter are always terrible, but as a source for news headlines and media announcements it works pretty well.

Sure, but you can get that with someone more long-form, too; it’s not exclusive to Twitter.

Conversely, if someone wants a summarized feed, having to browse past walls of text is an inconvenience.

Well, that’s a good point but I still think there are better services than Twitter/microblogging for that. Like our old friend RSS

I like RSS in theory, I used it a lot, but these days websites don’t maintain them as well as they used to.
