There is no reason to believe this statement is true, and the article doesn’t even try to make a case for it. It “feels” like it should be true, but the discussion is really just asserting the statement.
Skeptic: “I understand X. I’ve spent years working on it, and I’m recognized as an expert in the field. but I can’t explain X in simple terms.”
Believer: “Well, then you obviously don’t really understand it. Can you prove to me that you do"
Being able to explain things in simple terms is a skill in and of itself. Many people do not possess this particular skill, but that does not mean they are unable to understand any subject.
