    Fair enough. I don't know much about them but did have a look at their website to get the examples above. It seems they campaign against jargon and waffle with a focus on texts that serve a functional purpose. Have they also advocated for plain English in literature?

    I wouldn't say The Plain English Campaign are pro-dumbing down but rather anti-gobbledegook like this: "The Executive Team concluded that it was appropriate to adjust our plans for the transition to blended learning, by rephasing the commencement of the transition phase for two weeks."...
