There is a rather big gap between "have never heard about ZKP" and "mathematician comfortable reading complicated proofs all day long". I suspect here on HN there are enough people who wouldn't mind some more rigor in the examples - in fact, some good articles mentioned here do just that.
I don't mean to say that for this subject there aren't any materials available with more rigor than an introductory article, but some more wouldn't hurt.

In the cryptocurrency space in particular, this is an interesting topic that devs and users are hesitant to even discuss in person, and I wanted to take some of the fear away.
