I have read the trilogy and I second habryka’s comment. One non-too-spoily example is that at several points, humanity is seen as a cultural monolith: all of humanity is described as having a single reaction to an event, no variation between countries or at least cultural blocks.
(I greatly enjoyed the books and would recommend them to anyone who likes SF despite the criticism above.)

ah yeah, that example is just in line with Robin Hanson’s complaint that those stories are biased from thinking in a far view mode
