I was irked by the exact example you picked. I think it could have been solved with: "Her hand shakes so much she can't do sign language." But most other paragraphs were imho more relaxing and easy to parse. I remember in university when we were (literature as well as history department) trained to write "scientifically" (meaning complex, riddled with foreign words, preposterous). I understand the value of technical terms and words with very clear and specific meaning to a field. But the rest was superfluous BS to signify the belonging to the intellectual caste. But maybe that is typical for German universities. I don't know.
