Could you please cut this down abit ? <| sep |> nebbia is love , nebbia is life ! come si fa a mettere limmagine del dolce preferito ? <| sep |> I suppose we have different definitions of capitalism . Private ownership of capital and people leveraging it to accumulate wealth goes back much further than IP rights of any sort . I suppose by ' willfully complex language ' you mean stuff like ' heretofore the party of the first part . ' and so on ? There was an entire legal writing movement that killed that nonsense about 40 years ago . It turned out that briefs written in plain English were far more effective at being persuasive even when writing to other lawyers , and basically everybody acknowledged the benefits of the public being able to comprehend what ' s going on as often as possible . Even wanting to make things as clear as possible doesn ' t mean terms of art that have different meanings in plain English could be done away with , though . They ' re necessary . Nobody sits around trying to make them up for unspecified nefarious reasons . People start using them because they ' re useful . I mentioned the codes of ancient kings because they ' re the earliest examples we have of laws in anything like a modern sense of the word . I ' m certain people with authority resolved disputes much earlier , but there are no records of earlier codes of laws . Look , the basic problem here is that what you ' re so casually dismissing as unnecessary or intentionally overcomplicated are things that you know very little about . If you ' re prepared to spend a substantial amount of time reading I could give you a dozen cases to read that might help show you what I ' ve been trying to tell you so that you don ' t have to take my word for it . That ' s the best I can do .
