I'm probably going to be going against the grain here, but I think it's not as bad as it looks at first.

I was similarly frustrated a few months ago, but have noticed I've started to learn the idiom.

Its use of "dense jargon" and "stilted metaphor" is actually surprisingly consistent - it's speaking its own dialect, and you get used to it.

After a while it gets much easier to read and even becomes somewhat efficient, I think, since the odd metaphors it uses often have a precise meaning in Opus-ese (Fable speaks a really similar dialect).
