So opting for "elucidate" or "explicate" rather than a handy two syllable word is less pretentious?
@SethMacFarlane -
"Explain" never occurred to you?

Not sure I want to spend all day naming synonyms. Point remains: "unpack" is plain and compact
@SamHarrisOrg@SethMacFarlane -
Hardly two hallmarks of pretention, right?
@SamHarrisOrg@SethMacFarlane -
Agreed. In any case, I think he should keep saying 'unpack'.

@SethMacFarlane This word has a lot of utility and I don't see why it's pretentious at all. -
I wonder if he thinks the act of deeply analyzing concepts itself is pretentious.
