>In order to learn French and its vocabulary, English speaker will found a lot of similarity but from the more formal side of their vocabulary. That would lead English speaker to think French is more precise, I don't think the French have something to do with this.

Worse, the French apparently teach young students to write in a way that they consider profound, and the Anglosphere considers imprecise drivel.

Do elaborate?

I can't really go into detail much, but my wife too intensive/immersion French in her school days. As she became fluent in basic spoken and casual-written French, they taught her the French style of literary writing. She's the one who told me it's meant to be profound or deep, but comes across to her Anglo brain as vague and, well, bad at saying anything at all.
