The older I get, the less I am interested in a book that will challenge me through being difficult. I'd rather just be entertained or informed. Or hopefully both at the same time.

When I read, I want my thoughts and ideas challenged. Not my reading comprehension.

There's a point where you can't separate reading comprehension from transmission of thought.

Agreed

Lookin at you “Ulysses”

Tbf, there would be no point in dumbing down (or simplifying) something like Ulysses which is a prime example of a literary work where the form and content are inseparable.
