I've spent many years doing work in compliance for airlines. Hundreds of pages of documentation to describe the different rules and regulations which must be followed in specific scenarios. We'd convert those documents into a programmatic definition (rule engine) to alert when rules are at risk of not being followed. This work was fraught with bugs, a large portion of which came down to disagreement of what was coded v/s what was written. Even if you had airlines sign off sentence by sentence exactly what you wrote down in English, that's too open to interpretation. People don't appreciate how the same sentence can be read five different ways by different people (or the same person on different days). We had to structure our documents to be closer to pseudo-code than to English to get any meaningful consensus on the definition.
