How complex an issue is depends on how deeply you examine it. Unless including the additional complexity serves a purpose, it should not be introduced. As long as a person is free to inquire into such things himself, and the information isn't witheld to intentionally trick someone, an issue should only be made as complex as the listener needs it to be.

If you want to explain how to operate an automobile, you don't really have to explain how the intake manifold works.
