If dumbing it down would make more people interested in the field,why not?Can't say the same about hype-which only leads to misinformation.

I also wouldn't expect a brain surgeon to forge their own surgical tools and describe silicon in the operating room from first principles

Most of the math behind machine learning isn't that hard either, it's just inaccessible (especially the proofs).
