I'm genuinely curious why Steve’s way of talking, organising, and chaining ideas is amazing. From your point of view, what's the secret sauce ?

Impeccable taste. Which is, unfortunately, something that can't be put on a resume.

Totally agree, but the question "Impeccable taste" is a skill or a gift.

It was not, it's called salesmanship. It's all hype.

Ofc it's salesmanship, but actually not anyone is able to chain ideas and talk the same way

It’s knowing when to do less. Both in design and speaking style, only adding complexity as an option of last resort

so you think KISS (keep it simple stupid) is the key in this case ?

Can you post an example of what you are talking about?

There’s some of this in https://book.stevejobsarchive.com/
There are also his videos and speeches, for example when explaining the magic behind computers, and the way he simplifies everything in a delightful way.
