but this is the usual problem with e.g. all scientific texts:
it is extremely difficult for the author to write from a perspective
of someone who knows nothing about the subject.
That's why the original scientific papers are incomprehensible.

again, this is the usual problems of any complex design -- is why
there is so much ..ppy software out there.
I'd rather choose imperfectly documented great software.
Wojtek, there was nothing of a reprimand in any of my messages,
and I am in no position to make one; I'm just looking at it all
clinically. There is nothing in the situation that would go against
the laws of nature.

That's exactly the point. Let's shift the emphasis to what we can do
as a community.
