There’s a huge mismatch between people who are science fans and people who are doing physics anywhere near particle physics. It’s quite hard to explain how the field is spinning it’s wheels squared against what people consider scientific progress.
Edison’s “I found 100 things that didn’t work” is a nice parable but it doesn’t work across an entire field.
