No. What you're describing is the problem people have when teaching/providing insight/responding to questions online. They all use their current understanding and apply it to the question not assuming the other person has no knowledge of the subject.

Haven't you ever seen someone ask a question online that had a "newbie" answer that is generally correct, only to have a ton of people flood your response with all the caveats ignoring who their audience actually is. The default for most people is to use your current knowledge.
