By explanation I don't mean I want you to explain what your claim means (" I'm referring to..."). I mean I want you to explain why you believe your claim. Jargon is of secondary importance - it just takes a few google searches to understand. Also, I don't really care what seems weird to you. I do find it interesting why something seems weird to you, as long as you make some sort of sense :D
Uh… Is is possible to explain “why” without explaining “what”?
But anyway, the problem of explaining is similar to trying to write an OS using only regexes (or regular languages in general): there's no solution as long as that prerequisite about order of the allowed language is there. Or practically close to such situation, at least.
