I'll try to add more illustration. Having a white board to do the
explanation would also help a lot. ;)

I know that this processor model is hard to grasp. It took me quite a
while to understand it. Usually, I'm good at that stuff.

Still if people ask me question on how it work and why. That mean either
the explanation in the doc is still not good enough or we were wrong to
use it. I have read good question and query for explanation on how we
handle some case, but still no good argument against. The argument
everyone else is doing it another way isn't good enough for me. I like
proof of the why.
