I find it somewhat sad that law is basically a guild where arcane language is used to gatekeep what should be a much more straightforward exercise.

It's not. It's the equivalent of saying "I can do this better" and producing unreliably, buggy code. Sure you can, but a more experienced professional can point out all the corner cases you missed.

I mean, if you pay attention to the names of the kernel API functions, you'd probably end up with the same conclusion.
