recently I read a US law trade magazine article on a particular term used in US Federal employment law.. the article was about 12 pages long.. by the second page, they were using circular references, and switching between two phrases that used the same words but had different word order, contexts and therefore meanings, without clearly saying when they switched. By the third or fourth page I was done with that exercise. As a coder and reader of English literature, there was no question at all that the terms where being "churned" as a sleight of hand, directly in writing. One theory about a reason that they did that in an article that claimed to explain the terms, was to setup confusion and misdirection as it is actually practiced in law involving unskilled laymen, and then "solving" the problems by the end of the article.
