That's not very charitable. I don't think the basics of an internal combustion engine are that hard for anyone to understand.

These days you have a mass of computers adjusting said ICE every nanosecond to stay within certain emissions regulations etc.

Damn it, when someone can hack the cars steering via the internet connected entertainment system, the engine is the least complicated part of the package.
