Yeah and technically the Quran has a lot of repetition too so it compresses well. It’s so easy to memorize that 13 year old kids routinely do it.

Don’t think it’s possible? There are 114 suras. The longest one is like the screenplay of Star Wars, something many of know by heart even if we can’t recite it. The smallest bunch of suras resemble song lyrics. Most people have memorized considerably more than 114 songs. Replaying them just requires the right stimulus.
