As someone who is obviously not the target audience, I feel like literally anything on this page that could lead me to explain what MCP is would be nice, while we're talking about what the landing page doesn't tell you. Even just one of the MCP mentions being a link to modelcontextprotocol.io would be fine.

Or maybe I'm so out of the loop it's as obvious as "git" is, I dunno.

It’s fair to be curious, but at some point it’s also reasonable to expect people are capable of using Google to look up unfamiliar terms. I'm not gatekeeping—just, like, put in a bit of effort?

Threads like this work better when they can go deeper without rehashing the basics every time.

Having a Link to the mcp website won't be "rehashing" but how the web once was supposed to be.

I took a brief look at the MCP documentation today, and left looking confused. At a high level that protocol looks like a massive swiss-army knife that could potentially do everything, and the use-case in TFA looks like it's implementing one very specific tool within that large swiss-army knife. Both need better explanation.
