I recognize the difficulty and environmental dependence, and I still think it’s the way to go.
In the comment below, you say that you spent several hours here not being convinced and that resources need to be more condensed so as to get people to stick around.
That’s exactly the type of thing I’m talking about. Spend the first 30 seconds getting them to stay for a bit longer, and then that time sinking the hook deeper by making condensed arguments that they’ll accept as at least plausible and will need to look into- or something like that. It’s not an all or nothing thing, and I think there’s room for a lot of improvement on the margin.
I am working on a very specific form of the problem very aggressively. Still mostly building skills/understanding that will allow me to tackle the problem though, so the effort is in the same direction as the general problem.
