I worked in commercial science briefly and the only team in our field that wrote decent sentences was Lithuanian, and that was because in commercial science you want to actively write in reader-hostile ways as a layer of IP protection. Doing so was so functionally the social norm. Writing clearly wasn't just unusual, it was a flaw.

Yeah R&D (polymers), just wanted to be clear that I wasn't in an academic lab where the point was to publish things to show off that we were cool, the point was to publish things to demonstrate confidence in the commercial product.

The point is to publish actual scientific results, but make them so annoying to read that only the most dedicated nerds can wade through it.
