What kind of language did you write your thesis in? Did you follow the high consensus because that was required of you, or did you simplify it somewhat?

    But the art of using simple language well? Yeah, they don't teach that. They teach you how to navigate byzantine jargon so that you can snow undergraduates with it.

Can you tell me more about this? I'm curious but can't find a sufficiently specific question.
