That sums up my frustration perfectly. When talking to the general public, information density is your enemy not your friend. I have been trying to get mathematicians to understand that for years but they almost unanimously actively refuse to do so. I can list the reasons as to why I believe they refuse to do so but one thing is clear in my mind: you don't understand a concept unless you can ELI5.
For an expert to be able to dive into a dick measurement competition with his PhD friends about who can use the most fancy jargon possible is of no use to society. I just wish more people in the sciences could understand that!
