Jean also did an incredible Ted Talk a few years back, very much worth watching - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQpvLtU_nNc&t=6s
Dr. Jean really explained “ lung numbers “ well in the first video. She compares tests to check your lungs similar to the numbers of a blood pressure reading or a blood sugar reading in a simplified fashion.
