Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Over-explaining is like over-seasoning food—adding so much detail that the main point gets buried. Many people do this out of fear of being misunderstood, wanting to prove their effort, or confusing completeness with clarity, but it only leads to confusion and lost attention.
