It's not so much life experiences, but prior knowledge and familiarity. Taking mathematics as the operative example. A lot of deep theorems are trivial when you fully understand all relevant definitions. These proves cannot be stated 'in simple terms' because it took a stack of non-simple definitions to even formulate such a theorem. Explaining the entirety of the stack gets hard when the stack gets deep. For example, a lot of math gets really hard to explain when the concept of the real numbers being 'uncountably infinite' whilst the rationals are 'countably infinite' isn't obvious.
