I mean as a mathematician I also can't always wrap my head around their analogies, but I don't think that is always an issue on my part. I am somewhat of the belief that there is an inherent amount of complexity that can't really be diminished for a lot of these concepts, and "dumbing it down" too much may not be a good.
