Making something simple
Can be difficult or effortless
E = mc^2 a simple equation - but understanding is difficult especially creating the degree of understanding required to use it to its limits to more greatly understand the universe.
As it took great effort on Einstein's part to condense proofs and experiments to the formation of the equation - it will take similar effort to understand it from its simplicity to gain the understanding necessary to interact with it in a meaningful way.
Often I see a cycle in text communication where making communication simple leads to misunderstanding - requiring more complex explanation than would have been put forth without simplification at the onset.
This isn't always the case.
Communication takes effort - manipulation of speech personally seems disingenuine - not saying what you really think etc.
I've got more but I'm asleep.
