This might be a silly question but why are theses so long (200+ pages)? Someone just told me that they finished their 213 pages-long bachelor’s thesis, but I‘m confused about who the audience would be. Who would spend so much time reading a 213 thesis of a bachelor student? Do people actually read them? What is the purpose of some theses being so long. Also, on a Masters level, does the long length not make important information inaccessible, because it‘s buried deep down in those hundreds of pages?

Depends on the topic , mine had fair number of graphs and images (palynology) , add loads of references and then actually discussing my point.
But had a friend whos was quite a bit shorter, because didnt need images , and it turned out to be quite a simple point being made
