ITT, techniques that scientists use as barriers to entry to keep the common man from understanding and/or evaluating their claims.

So, instead of researchers just doing research, we waste their time by making them write hundreds of pages of textbook material on each of their papers?  And how far do you go?  What if the reader never took a basic Calculus course?  Instead of short papers that are directed towards the appropriate audience, you'll end up with books that the "common man" would still be too stupid to understand unless he completely devoted several years of his life to learning it.  My guess is that you are a complete failure of life working at a fast food restaurant, and you are simply unable to grasp how complex scientific subjects can be and how much background knowledge they require.
