I try to be as clear as possible and I think I usually succeed.
"But of course you are, my dear."
I do enough reading so that simple prose like mine (and it really is pretty simple) doesn't seem dense and I don't miss elementary contrasts.
If someone isn't understanding what you're saying, you really have two useful options: rephrase, or admit "I'm sorry, I can't really say it any clearer than that". You have chosen Option #3: insult your audience, suggesting that communicating is not really the point of the exercise, and you're about to take your ball and go home.
