Personally, I don't see why amateurs think that anything to do with spectra or astrophysics is "too mind boggling for me to understand". When you look at the conceptual complexity of amateurs' knowledge about telescopes and optics, it can actually be greater than the complexity of the basic physics needed to understand spectra.

Agreed. A lot of the concepts aren't that hard to understand. It all depends on the explanation of those concepts.
