Looking like being obvious is not among Rams principles.

    OK, I think it's a misunderstanding. Self-explanatory refers to the use of object that is designed. It needs no explanation. How to ride a bicycle is pretty self-explanatory (even if it's not trivial to learn). The design of a bicycle however is not obvious.
