I'm observing that many minimalistic/simplified forms of complex subjects are for the benefit of those who actually navigated the complexity, grokked it, and saw the underlying simplicity ... then documented it as simplicity in that context. It means little to anyone not already familiar with the complexity. Kudos if that understanding can be presented as a shortcut to enlightening the ignorant, but most of the time it's really done as a conclusion, not an introduction. Reading the ending of the story is not enlightening unless you've read from the beginning.
