A side note - I blame that on our education. In my anecdotal n=1 case, the statistics were never taught in school (and I was in math class all the way and the school was higher tier locally, a "lyceum"). And in the local Polytechnic the only course which taught the subject was a Probability Theory and Math Statistics. It was one of those "intimidating" courses on my faculty, the ones which older students scare freshmen with. And it was indeed as crazy as they said, I remember nothing from it outside of the sheer horror of rote remembering hundreds of pages of, well, something. I scrapped by with a lowest passing mark and promptly cleared my brain cache of that.

Nowadays I often stumble upon this or that statistical topic, watch an educational video, read a wiki explanation and it makes sense. Plus I've picked up unstructured and chaotically a lot of terms just by reading IT articles and forums.

tl;dr - my point is, our education is severely lacking a simple, short and concise statistics course on ELI5 level, for middle schoolers. And it is a huge gap in skills people actually do need in common life, outside of STEM. And the skills I'm talking about aren't even hard, a core set of basic concepts, without any math, can likely fit in a tiny brochure written in simple literary English with a few illustrations. Or a set of YT videos along the same lines.
