        So opting for "elucidate" or "explicate" rather than a handy two syllable word is less pretentious? @SethMacFarlane

        Agreed. In any case, I think he should keep saying 'unpack'.

        .@SamHarrisOrg @SethMacFarlane "unpack" is a perfectly suitable, unpretentious word for describing an analysis of a concept.

        @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.
