Hell, there's more thematic unity to OK Comp than there is to Kid A.
Nobody's particularly able to give any reasons as to why it is better than OKC, other than it just simple being the case. It loses on all counts of what makes an album good:
- quality of specific material
- consistency of general material
- flow and congruity
- thematic unity
- just simple good f'cking songs!
