The Curse of Knowledge

 I read a book on non-fiction writing called a Sense of Style by Stephen Pinker. He was describing the curse of knowledge where the author knows so much about what they are talking about they don't realize that the readers don't understand it all. He suggested you should always get someone unfamiliar with the subject to read your writing before you try to publish it. When I told Sarah about that, she took offense because she said she thought I was getting her to read my reports because she was so smart.
