Oh, so when someone doesn't lie to you it's unsettling?
The only way to know if something is secure is when it's adopted en-mass and you see if it really was secure or not. You could read the WinXP pamphlet on security back when it was released and it had endless bullet points about how secure it was. It was probably the least secure software in the history of computing based on actual attacks after the fact.
Security isn't something you provide an answer to unless you're selling snake oil. Luckily, it seems most people prefer buying snake oil and are happy to eat up a vendor telling them how secure an utterly untested product is.
Security theory is not something you can understand as a non-technical user anyway.
I think one should start by explaining what "a layer 3 virtual network that uses public keys instead of IP addresses" would mean, or what a network is depending on what non-technical means.
If one doesn't immediately understand what this means, they should stay away. The intended audience is clearly people who have some grounding in networking.
