I'm sure that many could read it, but reading it and understand are not the same thing. Understanding takes time, often a lot of time. And this is where the simplified bit comes back.

Discussions on social media rarely indicate much effort at nuance...

I'm not even confident about the "many could read it" part. Most papers are full of obscure jargon, and occasionally fields of study will just re-define words for their own purposes.
