    When they say that it's called proof by intimidation lol

    To be fair sometimes it is a little obvious or not necessary for education to really dive into the details (unless you're in senior courses about those details but then they handwave all the "simple stuff"). Sometimes it's better to start with the view from 10000 feet and then zoom in on the relevant stuff, then for the people who are into the details you can let them try to work it out - which will really help them learn too. I agree, modern papers and textbooks do have a readability problem even still.
