Who do you think Tyson is talking to?  You seem to think he should be introducing science to people that are already scientists and that's just silly.  His "job" is introducing science to lay people, why would he give them the "frustrating, often dead-ending, enormously challenging, and humbling field" aspect of science?  That's going to turn lay people away.  His "job" is to fight ignorance and explain science in ways that children and ignorant adults can understand and enjoy.  He does just fine at that.
