Lede seems very wordy

Lede seems very wordy and pedantic. Should the definition of economic inequality be summarized?

I was thinking about paraphrasing to the following:

Economic inequality is the gap between the rich and poor, usually measuring the differences in income, wealth or consumption.

And then adding the rest of the lede:

Each of these can be measured between two or more nations, within a single nation, or between and within sub-populations (such as within a low-income group, within a high-income group and between them, within an age group and between inter-generational groups, within a gender group and between them etc, either from one or from multiple nations).[2], yada, yada, yada.
