You seem to be using the word "doubt" a lot whenever you don't completely
understand something, but this is not what the word means.

It means "to consider questionable or unlikely; to hesitate to believe; to
distrust", as in "I doubt that she is telling the truth".  So it makes it
sound, not like you don't understand something, but that you think it is
bad or wrong (not trustworthy).  I know that this isn't your intention.
