and the comment....

"while 5's are masters at complicating simple ideas and concepts by redifining them into various
levels of intricacy."

...seems to be intended as an insult. The point to think about, if you are a 5 or not, is that a 5's expalaination might seem as such to a non-5, or to one not informed on the topic, while seeming the exact opposite to a five or one informed. This is what good teachers understand - that different styles affect the ability to interpret and understand. What you deem confusion through levels of intricacy is synthesising for a 5. Putting ideas in compartments may simplification for some, but it is obfuscation to others.
