I think you're spot on, and I made a similar comment above.
It's easy to say "they can figure it out". Sure, in a restful state. But the people we're asking to take action already have a lot on their plate. Using plain, conversational language whenever possible with exceedingly clear steps means less mental exertion on the receiver. And since we need their help, anything we can do to make it easier on their end helps us.
