It seems that this is a common sense that "light wave can't see the
details smaller than wavelength." Does anybody know what is the
inherent reason of that?

The mathematical explanation is in both Maxwell's equations and
Heisenberg's uncertainty relation (take your pick).

If anybody has a less technical explanation, I'm all ears.
