Analytical Intuition.
Hypothesis Testing is the Courtroom of Science. We assume the Null (no effect) and see if the data is so extreme it rejects it. P-value is the probability of seeing your data if the Null was true.
CAUTION
Institutional Warning.
Type I Error (False Alarm) vs Type II Error (Missing the truth). Power is the ability to detect the truth.
Academic Inquiries.

Why p < 0.05?
An arbitrary historical convention by Fisher; context matters more than a hard cutoff.
