You sound offended. My apologies. I had no intention whatsoever to offend anyone. Even if I am not diagnosed, I think I am at least borderline somewhere in the spectrum, and thought that would be a good way to ask people explain without assuming I can read between the lines.

Let's just stick with the widely understood "Explain Like I'm 5" (ELI5). Nobody knows you personally, so this comes off quite poorly.

I think ELI5 means that you simplify a complex issue so that even a small kid understands it. In this case there is no need to simplify anything, just explain what a term actually means without assuming reader understanding nuances of terms used. And I still do not quite get how ELIA can be considered hostile, but given the feedback, maybe I avoid it in the future.
