English is a creolised bastard language, though. That is its history. And that's always been its strength.
Nothing to do with the armies and the economic might, then?

I'm sure there's a lot of horror stories about time, energy and money pissed up against the wall because a client wasn't crystal clear about exactly what they wanted.

He wanted to suggest that maybe his clients could learn to embrace clarity, but he thought it might be a career limiting strategy.
