The problem with a more human-friendly explanation of the standard is
that then you're not reading the standard, you're reading something
that may be wrong.  (http://www.lysator.liu.se/c/schildt.html) The
whole point of reading the standard is to know exactly what is or
isn't in it, and translating that leads to less confidence in the
results.
