I mostly agree with you.

That all said, it would still be quite nice if it was somehow more accessable. A lot of papers containing material that's probably actually quite standardizable remain opaque to me, and the notation invariably falls by the wayside if there's a code or language description available.

Many times, math notatons have been thought to be minimal, or most clear possibly, only to fall by the wayside

Whereas this notation serves domain specialists well, it still leaves people like me somewhat confused

A cheat sheet - even to the practical norms - would go a long way
