From what I have seen on the Internet it seems that indeed the different types of jargon makes it complicated, but with differences between the various Englishes, many people using less-than-perfect English and above that all the railroad terminology in a couple of other languages which one comes across, there are many chances for confusion. Amazing, in a way, that there isn't more! Nice and understanding people everywhere, I guess.
