what if i told you that there are no difficult to understand programs, only badly written ones, and it's possible to write programs in such a way that they are understandable to anyone.
the problem is that reading the program and understanding what it does is not the same, because meaning is not always given in the source code context. we have a term for source code stripped of the meaning: obfuscation. the code is either obfuscated (unintentionally), or not. it's that simple. clean code is just a programming discipline that aims to write meaningful code. there are no hard rules, just advices.
