I definitely agree but there's no way this is "English/American style". It's because people have grand plans of making their article/book accessible to everyone, and they start off explaining e.g. what a vector is, but pretty soon realise the don't want to write an entire vector algebra textbook so they seamlessly give up and jump straight into Stoke's theorem or whatever.

I read a Synopsys simulator manual that explained what double clicking was.
