demystifiers
Those who explain
Demystifiers are people or things that make complex subjects clearer and more accessible.
A good science writer is a demystifier, stripping away jargon to reveal underlying ideas: The best teachers are demystifiers who make difficult concepts feel approachable.
The term implies that obscurity often surrounds things unnecessarily, and that clarity is achievable.
