Fell for the usual trap of teaching something complex. If you teach a simplified version, you just teach... the simplified version. You didn't teach the actual complex thing and the learners will eventually still have to learn that

I'm not even convinced it's simplified. It's got ~40 letters in it they said.

But I'm also not an educator, so may be missing some points.
