Oh duh!  I'm getting old, and didn't realize how /smart/ that was./
/

/Definitely/ try Consumers Reports, and cite an article from "a leading 
academic journal", the CACM. They'll probably expect something /utterly/ 
unintelligible, but Philippa Harrison's article at 
https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3564262 is just sort of bland.

Then explain why the second of the "key insights" from the article, is 
relevant to Consumer Reports.  The key insights are probably all they'll 
read, you understand (:-))

Finally, introduce the non-profit nature of the community that solved 
the problem, and offer them as resources. That addresses the "what are 
you selling", and "can you help us test this stuff" questions, which 
will be the among the next things they'll want to know.
