It's a straight answer sufficiently couched in jargon that a non-technical person still isn't likely to understand the problem or how to resolve it.

Sure, but "only technical people will understand what the problem is" is infinitely better than "literally nobody will understand what the problem is".
I mean, I'll agree that it's slightly better in absolute terms. "Infinitely" is a strong word choice for a case where 95% of users will still be in the dark, unless you insist on using the term in a pedantic mathematical sense.
