It shouldn't. The games do absolutely nothing to promote that depth. You've never been forced to do one complex thing in and campaign Pokemon battle since the first games 20+ years ago, so how would "most people" find that out?

Possibly by playing competitively. I'm guessing that's what the original comment was referring to.

I know that's what the comment is referring to. The point I'm making is that competitive battling isn't something most people do, and the reason for that is because the games do nothing to promote or encourage that. It's an extremely niche path by design, so the original commenter being "baffled" that "most people" aren't aware of the battle system's depth is senseless.
