A quote often attributed to Albert Einstein
“if you can’t explain it simply you don’t understand it well enough”
(people still argue the source of the quote)
e.g.
PRESENTATION MISSION: KIDIFY
“If you can’t explain it to a 6 year old, you don’t understand it yourself.”

The variant comes up too in reddit as explainitlikeim5, e.g. “ELI5: Why are places like Japan experiencing extreme heatwaves of 40-45 degrees celcius while equatorial areas such as Malaysia and Indonesia are not experiencing such high temperatures even though they are closer to the equator?” which has over 255 responses.
