I think at the current point in time it's useful for teaching early adopters and enthusiasts. A simplified format might develop at later stages when aiming to cross the gap into mainstream household adoption.
One of the things we need to achieve on the fediverse is not just getting people to move to fediverse sites and use them, but to understand why they're using fediverse sites and why cutting out corporations is a good thing. The average person isn't going to come over without bigger reasons to, they want their slop and will go to wherever has the most slop. Create a new culture with a reason for people to support it, use that to reach a critical mass to pump out a competitive amount of slop, then at that point you'll drag in the mainstream.
