I think the other comments here have touched on the issue(s) I face with slop.

  1. It feels bloated for no good reason. I often find myself wishing the person who sent the slop would just send me their prompt instead. It would be faster, more clear, and easier to boil down to the essentials.
  2. It feels lazy. If you don't find it worth-while to take the time to produce this content for me, why should I take the time to read it?
  3. As noted in the OP, I don't know how to interact with it. Do I ask clarifying questions if something is vague or unclear? What about an error? Is the prompter going to just blame the AI for it, or will they accept their mistake?
  4. Related to 3, I often don't trust that the prompter has verified the slop for correctness, accuracy, completeness, etc., so it feels like it's not worth consuming because who knows if it's right.

There's probably more, but that captures some of the major pain points.
