Sorry a very last explanation!

It is not about a fool adding a word that isn't there!

Humans often understand "things" in a context, but the context often
isn't clear enough to be unambiguous.

For you the context includes an understanding about what is happening
under the hood. More or less the same is true for somebody using
Claws since years, but it's not necessarily self-explaining for
somebody new to Claws or who never cared much about what is under the
hood.

Now I will really stop my explanations ;).
