What made Feynman a great scientist was that he could explain hard things in a simple manner. If you can't explain it simply, then you don't understand it well enough.

Try to explain that to string theorist. No wonder quantum mechanics isn't making progress. These new scientists just want to prove how smart they are, and not how little they actually know. Thus allowing them to make progress.
