Why is it hard to get across in writing?

I'd say because of two reasons:

a) it requires putting together a fairly large number of concepts of moderate complexity (and you never know which ones your readers already understand.)

b) many of the concepts sound trivial and people usually don't grasp their power until you've listed X amounts of things it would enable.

And to be clear; it's hard for me to put in writing for now ;)
