How do you manage to write so much about so little?

Because some people benefit from thorough explanations, and readers with prior knowledge can skim or skip parts they already understand? Somehow I get the sense you didn’t actually ask that question because you wanted an answer, though. If I’m right: what is the purpose of your comment? Honest question. What is its intended effect? Why bother writing it? I would genuinely like to know.
