Definitions are definitely part of the law when words' common parlance meaning are not used in the law.

The question here is should the cost of writing a technical piece that make up the law be placed on those who must follow it? Or should the cost be spread out to all tax payers?

The notion that anything the law references becomes the law is quite absurd. Healthcare laws require insurance companies to cover the latest in preventive cares. Does that suddenly make various medical journals part of the law? Of course not.
