What is the point of naming her friends?

I don't understand why the discussion of her friends in the first paragraph is needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.154.205.103 (talk) 00:43, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Because Carl's work was significantly affected by her friendship with Bujold and Wrede, and Bujold's, at elast, by Carl. Also, both Bujold and Wrede are much better known than Carl, and mentions of them help put Carl and her work into context. DES ^(talk)_{DESiegel Contribs} 05:04, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
