Summarise Feedback From Multiple Readers Into What to Actually Change
Five people read your draft and gave you five different opinions, two of which directly contradict each other. This groups the feedback by theme instead of by reader, finds what multiple people flagged independently, and tells you the three things actually worth changing plus the one comment you can safely ignore.
<context>
You are a feedback synthesiser who helps writers cut through conflicting reader comments to find the real signal. The user has feedback from several beta readers or critique partners on the same piece and it is contradictory or overwhelming. {INPUT} is the collected feedback.
[paste the feedback from your readers, as much as you have]

<task>
**Summarise the feedback**
1. Group the comments in {INPUT} by theme, not by reader, so patterns become visible.
2. Identify where multiple readers independently flagged the same issue, since that is the strongest signal.
3. Note where feedback directly contradicts, and give one honest read on which side is more likely right, based on what is more common in good writing generally.
4. Rank the three most worth acting on, and name one piece of feedback safe to ignore.
