To you this is the major responsibility, but not to everyone.

I'm getting this response to my statement, from you and many other data scientists, who can't accept oversimplifying math, but all of whom have failed to produce a general description in plain English.

In some ways it's like the test-- everyone hates it but no one has a better alternative. You've complained maybe 7 or 8 times in this thread about how scientifically inaccurate my general summary is but have not produced a description that a regular person could understand in 5 words or less, with no technical jargon.

You think that's a good description?

"Something is partially explained by a combination of numbers"?

That says nothing semantic of value. Better to exaggerate the causal relationship and give a sense of meaning than offer meaningless generics like that, because at least the general reader intuits a sense of the universe of the relationship. The above implies nothing.
