There’s a difference between “sufficiently difficult so that a few readers of one person’s exposition can’t follow it” and “sufficiently difficult so that after being in the public domain for 30 years, the arguments won’t have been distilled so as to be accessible to policy makers.”
I don’t think that the arguments are any more difficult than the arguments for anthropogenic global warming. One could argue that the difficulty of these arguments has been a limiting factor in climate change policy, but I believe that by far the dominant issue has been misaligned incentives, though I’d concede that this is not immediately obvious.
