This is not true. Ask a Lawyer, Accountant or a Journalist wading through govt pdfs.
The reasons cases and investigations take forever is the time spent manually reassembling related data residing in different orgs. The same data across all orgs will show up as 25 differently structured tables.
This is changing slowly but putting public tabular data in pdfs has probably cost the economy billions.
