Very true. I often make the mistake of thinking that if something makes sense to me pretty quickly, it will be just as quick for others.

We should remember that those of us here now are more likely to be uniquely interested in this tech and thus more able to wrap our heads around these concepts without being deterred. We could always do a better job making it accessible for beginners who don’t benefit from the same background.
