Scott Aaronson has a bunch of well-cited papers related to quantum algorithms [1]. That merits you at least explaining how his explanation is not illuminating instead of blankly asserting it. I know that I found it pretty illuminating when I ran into it the first time.

I think that if someone could explain this, they probably wouldn't need the explanation. You can't ask "why don't you understand?" and expect to get a meaningful answer.
(They might be able to point at a specific bit and say "you lost me here", but that's a what, not a how, and they might not be able to.)
