So I’m not sure about the intuition part. Wouldn’t someone with a strong intuition and understanding of an idea be able to provide a clear explanation? Isn’t it required?
Intuition and internalization—the very things that help one “move fast” within their area of expertise—are the things that most inhibit one from producing clear, comprehensible explanations when teaching non-experts.

I suppose there’s a difference between “earned” intuition (developed by study/work) and “natural” intuition (an aptitude for directly, usefully abstracting a concept without “working for it”). I was referring to the latter, but I take your point.

I agree that the latter is harmful if you're trying to explain the concept, because you don't do the extra work to gain an understanding. So you can't articulate that thought process. I presume it's also why "geniuses" can sometimes be utterly useless at teaching.

Precisely.

I read that as "internationalization" the first few times and was puzzled.

Right; should’ve written it as i13n. Then it would’ve been completely unambiguous.
