Writing that makes reading easy is hard work.
Well said. I agree fully, with the one possible caveat that I think this issue almost entirely separate from that of word choice/vocabulary.
I have even come up with my own term to describe this: narrative flow.
I think about this a lot. It is the organization of ideas, how one thought leads smoothly into the next, the phrasing and presentation, the pacing at the sentence level. I find that when this is handled really, really well, I can read a bit faster. When done right, it looks deceptively simple.
