The concrete question is simply whether knowledge of the subdirect decomposition of a semiprimitive ring can be helpful in understanding the full representation theory of the ring. This question has been more than a little prompted by the Wikipedia article --- not that I give Wikipedia articles more weight than they are due! --- which states "a semiprimitive ring is a type of ring ... where simple modules still provide enough information about the ring". | |
