Morphology

digestible = digest (transparent) = digest + ible

Formed regularly from 'digest' + '-ible' with a predictable metaphorical extension meaning 'able to be understood or absorbed mentally'.

Etymology

The word digestible comes from the same root digest-, which means 'to break down', and the idea works for information too. A short digest breaks a big idea into small parts, so something digestible is 'easy to understand'.
