It is an intentionally simplified version of English. Although, in this case, the meaning of the article seems to have been affected by the simplification. The English version makes it clear that this is a theoretical concept, whereas the Simple English version makes it sound like something concrete/absolute.
- krylon 8y agoIronically, I found the Simple English articles I tried to read harder to understand than the regular ones. Interesting concept, though.
- mmirate 8y agoIronic but inevitable; the simplification appears to mostly be a matter of vocabulary. Reducing the vocabulary usually eliminates most technical jargon, and when the subject-matter is technical, the result is, well, a mess.
