I believe that it might not always be essential for scientists to explain their research processes to the public. The inherent complexity of scientific research can result in misunderstandings if not communicated with precision. There's also the danger of oversimplifying the information, which could lead to a distorted understanding of the research. Furthermore, not everyone has the interest or time to delve into these explanations. Scientists, being experts in their fields, may lack the necessary communication skills to convey their findings effectively, potentially leading to misinterpretation, especially of preliminary results.
