Yeah. Unfortunately distillation to simplicity eliminates the proof of work necessary to convey any sense of validity. So just as a theory produces an index to a formula, a distillation serves as an index to a construction (proof). And the knowledge necessary to grasp the proof may be prohibitive. So social construction of the validity of the distillation by those who can grasp the proof is the only means by which common people can place confidence in it.
Just how it is.
