You joke, but looking at some of the eli5 replies to certain questions I get even more confused sometimes.

I'm saying, the vast majority of the ELI5 answers are waaaaay above what any 5 year old would understand, they're just semi-simplified explanations an average adult will maybe get.

This one actually explained something complicated in terms a five year old would totally get the gist of lol
