Guest lox, thank you. I wish you had been around to say that to my old Chief of enforcement. He didn't like my report writing because I refused to use that gobbledegook called "governmentese".
He sent me to report writing school, and the first thing the instructor said was, "If you want to say 'Mary had a little lamb, then say, Mary had a little lamb. Do NOT say, Mary possessed a diminutive sheep."
Others were surprised that he sent me to school because they appreciated my clarity of thought.

An example of governmentese, A critical, high response area. Translation, a potential trouble spot.
