Functional Requirements and Assurance Requirements might seem mind
boggling at first.
But you  need a common vocabulary to describe security specifications.
How else would you expect to archive common recognition between all
those countries. :-P

Well actually,  for each section of the PP/ST there is a requirement
that says
the section must be coherent.  For example CEM says in paragraph 300

"The statement of the TOE description is coherent if the text and
structure of
the statement are understandable by its target audience (i.e. evaluators and
consumers)."

So everything other than those FDP_,FCS_, FIA_, FAU_, ALC_... things,
is supposed to be understandable.
