I like this concept, and think this is better jargon than System 1 and System 2 (since the three levels of understanding are in a sequence that makes obvious sense and you can rederive if you forget which order they go in). But it still feels a bit unclear to me. You say that Understand-1 is more clear/specific than “I kinda understand”, but if that’s the case, then I only understand-1 what you’re talking about here.
“I kinda understand” sometimes means understand-1 but not 2, it sometimes means 2 but not 3 (multiple people have replied in ways that imply 2 doesn’t count for them only 3 does). It sometimes means you sorta have understand-2 but not fully, or even a partial understand-1. So basically there’s 2 dimensions—whether it’s 1-2-3, and how well it is the one it is, and the kinda can apply to either or both. By saying whether it’s an intuitive or analytical (or teachable) understanding (with a kinda if it’s in the kinda range) you can draw that distinction.
