The public being too ignorant to interpret analysis isn't disinformation.

I wish everyone thought this way :/
So it's ok to mislead people so long as you are not lying directly?
It's ok to pass on accurate information that requires the public to put in the work to accurately understand it.

It is probably impossible to have the complex dialogue sufficient to inform people both intelligent and willing to put in the work in a way that is not apt to either be misunderstood accidentally or more frequently on purpose.
