What this amounts to is an example of Political Confusopoly, ie a technique whereby due to an over elaborate arrangement it becomes impossible or too tiresome for the public to discern the issue,and thus are not in a position to pose a challenge or question the matter in hand.
An excellent example of this would be Pension Schemes, bamboozling by design in order to maximise their profits , then years later, when you realise youve been rumbled , its too late.
The IT industry excells at this too, making products and documentation which is deliberately Byzantine in order to safeguard commercial interests.
