I should note that if I'm teaching deep things, then I view it as important to make people feel like they're learning deep things, because otherwise, they will still have a hole in their mind for "deep truths" that needs filling, and they will go off and fill their heads with complete nonsense that has been written in a more satisfying style.
After a couple years on LW I feel I have no such hole anymore. Just stopped categorizing beliefs as deep or undeep. I'm grateful to you for that.
