I agree that if you can't make them get it, you need to remove the opportunity for the problem. One answer on the actual post that I found interesting was the analogy to falling asleep. For most people, that takes X minutes. Let's pretend that is 10. It seems pretty relatable to say that if I am falling asleep and you engage me with questions about something that this timer resets. It will now take me X+ minutes to fall asleep. Everyone has been interrupted when trying to fall asleep so I think at the least it would provide empathy even if they can never fully "get it" as to why it takes 10 minutes to get into the zone. I think the other thing that people could understand is that part of developing involves moving the code and systems you are working on into a complete and active model in your brain. This is why the loading time is required so you can then leverage this model to plan and make changes.
