    I always thought the idea of “say what you said” was a dumbed down version of the real purpose of a conclusion. Sure you can summarize, but a concluding section is the place for a lot of other things, like acknowledging or suggesting unresolved questions/need for additional research, placing a quote or anecdote that contextualizes your findings, or a call to action depending on the style of the piece.
