Also, procedures tend to be static. By contrast, the process of
learning a subject, then ordering the information into a usable form
tends to be dynamic (at least it is for me; maybe I'm just slow).
It's very hard for pre-existing procedures to reflect this reality.

Wise blood,the sky's on fire: away, away,
Wild wood, bush and briar, it makes your heart to tremble;
Love, you mustn't tire at the dying of the day."
