> Finance is almost deliberately obfuscated to keep retail investors out

Is it retail investors they are worried about, or is it expecting that the market won't undo any trickery?

No idea. I think investing is advanced enough that you typically need somewhat complex jargon and data to actually make money - over time it's basically become an old boys club and no-one's really trying to make it accessible to regular investor.
