You know that you're in essence saying "While I'm uneducated in the field, I demand all dialogue happens at my level", right?
This is not how science works. Never has, never will. Like any specialty, it will - inevitably - develop its own jargon. Not as gatekeeping, but because shorthand matters for efficient communication.
If you'd like to understand topics at a more layperson level, science papers are not what you want to read. You want to look to science communicators, who do the work of breaking it down, dejargonizing, and making it understandable for a wider audience.
Demanding science is conducted at the lowest common denominator level makes science impossible.
