Actually, it's here where you are wrong. I have to agree with Tril
that your posts are hard to understand. The burden of proof is on the
party trying to explain the new ideas. If you fail to explain your
ideas adequately, then you need to take the steps necessary to see
that your audience understands them. Unless, as I had assumed, getting
your audience to understand your ideas is not your goal. In which case
you can carry on exactly as you already have.

I can only try to dig meaning out of incomprehensible sentences for so
long, and then I become tired. If you wish to communicate your ideas,
you need to explain them in a way which will hold meaning for the
people here.
