A specific example helps more people understand.
Details make an idea universal. Avoid using general terms when a specific example is possible.
Specific details help people imagine a situation clearly. When an example is very precise, many different people can relate to it. A general example might not connect with anyone strongly. A specific example allows more people to see themselves in the situation.
A developer writes a story about 'Priya in Pune sharing a room with her brother.' This specific detail helps a student in New York or a parent in London understand the feeling of limited space. If the developer wrote 'a teen sharing a room with a sibling,' the example would be less clear and less relatable.
