In a formal inquiry of the sort projected here, the less the discussants need to depend on the compliance of understanding interpreters the more they will necessarily understand at the end of the formalization step.

It might be thought that the ultimate zero of understanding that can be expected of interpreters would correspond to the ultimate height of understanding that can be attained by formalizers, but this neglects the negative potential of misunderstanding, the sheer perversity of interpretation that true human creativity can bring to bear on any text.

On the other hand, a mechanical system starts out in a state that is equally incapable of misunderstanding as it is of understanding.  Thus it forms a moderate compromise to address the task of interpretation to a computational system, a thing that is known to begin from a relatively neutral initial condition as far as human understanding goes.
