Where did I say that senators do not understand? I am not implying senators cannot read.

Senators do not generally have security backgrounds. So they turn to experts. The senators remain responsible for interpreting the expertise. They must consider all input within a wider context that includes other stakeholders.

When the senators discuss the legislation amongst each other, they consider the inputs of all stakeholders. They need to condense all they learned from the experts into legislation. This requires balancing the biases of conflicting expertise. How do the senators handle the inevitable situation where telecom experts pitch an argument that conflicts with that of Mr. Blaze?

The best marketed idea will win. Experts are salesmen and their ideas are their products.

All I'm saying is that when the experts pitch their ideas, the senators are vulnerable to the same uncontrollable subconscious factors as everyone else. If an idea comes to them packaged with marketing expertise, it will have an advantage over any competing ideas.

Bullet points are good because they're good marketing.
