The form factor of my posts is similar to how books of higher education are worded in their chapters.
I'll read you a couple passages for example:

"We have shown that the design of a compensator to satisfy the given specifications (in terms of phase margin and gain margin) can be carried out in the Bode diagram in a simple and straightforward manner. It is noted that not every system can be compensated with a lead, lag, or lag-lead compensator. In some cases compensators with complex poles and zeros may be used."

"The semiinverse method of Saint-Venant is comparable to the mechanics of materials method in that certain assumptions, based on an understanding of the mechanics of the problem, are introduced initially. Sufficient freedom is allowed so that the equations describing torsion boundary value problem of solids may be employed to determine the solution more completely"
I've been reading my entire life so its rubbed off, I put "" quotes around anything I take from a book though. When you see this sort of script it is a method employed to create short-as-possible passages with maximum information and minimum math (no emotional hold ups, no pleasantries and no equations if possible). Not intended to be degrading or high and mighty, but when math is broken down into words it can become difficult to turn to English. Also Maybe it is that people not used to reading 30 pages per day as students have brains which are 'angry' at not having aptitude to decipher the seemingly endless texts that books provide, even when done second hand in a (rough/attempt) method on my part. Sorry if you think it is degrading and I'll remove anything you find offense should you truly find something that is. But I think in reality you just want to believe the information is degrading so you can feel comfortable with being angry at it and ignore it.
