Even someone who never took calculus can usually grasp the concept of first learning ideal velocity and acceleration, then adding details like friction.

When learning, I don't appreciate reading a description of something, thinking about it, generating my own conclusions, then finally reading forward to find I had been misled not by my own fault but by faulty explanations.

As an example, a book I read on SQL was narrated from the point of view of an employee at a startup and stated that indexes on views were efficient, but then eventually backtracked on that statement, saying that this is only true for materialized views.

Start with the simplest conveyance, which usually is riddled with the most bullshit. If you don't lose them, just add the corrections, if there are too many, only add some of the corrections, rinse, repeat.

Bad simplification: "The CPU is like the brain of your computer"

Better simplification: "The CPU is like the conductor of your computer"

You may not think my "better simplification" is so great either. The point is, somebody may be satisfied with the "brain" answer because it feels right, but (IMO) it doesn't actually give you a better understanding of the situation.
