While [[id:e19ca54b-74b2-436a-b3e1-a5fd4ff6ecab][Speedreading]] has surrounding skepticism for productivity researchers, it can be repurposed as a skimming technique.
The fast reading speed but lower comprehension fits the description of what skimming is all about.
Thus, the following uses make speedreading a fitting tool.

- A picture and keyword walk of a chapter in a textbook.
  Very useful for advanced reading.

- Extracting ideas in a rereading.
  A beneficial tool for filling details once you already know the main idea.
