It would be useful, if it helps to teach concepts though, no?
To me, the experts who are the best at explaining advanced concepts to
normal
people (i.e. people out of the know) are able to distill the
important principles and elements and express them in ways that may
have no "real value" beyond that context.
Would you agree or disagree with that statement?
