alt Hacker NewsI take ELI5 in hackernews comments to mean: "Explain like i'm someone with a vaguely technical background but no knowledge in this particular field", not "I'm a literal five year old". I think it's probably close to impossible to explain this adequately to an actual five year old while staying true to the essence of the paper.
I would expect someone commenting ELI5 on Hacker News to mean that they didn't understand the article directly, so pasting several paragraphs verbatim is not particularly helpful to them. If you think that the article is clear, and they're still asking for clarification, it's a sign that you've probably overestimated the clarity to someone with less experience in the subject (as always, relevant xkcd for this: https://xkcd.com/2501/)
