Would you consider "describe an experiment which likely produces insight X" as explaining verbally? I feel like what people usually mean by "explain" is more homoiconic so I'd say 'Basically no'

Nope, I'd call that instructions. The understanding there is experiential, which is where I think real understanding comes from, mostly.
