I hate this myself. I understand why people like it, but I want to be able to figure it out, not have it change on me. I like wiki pages with details and equations.
At this point I see more board games in my future, since they need to stay understandable.
Your tone says this is a problem. I play the way I like, you play the way you like. I never said all games have to cater to me, so I’m not sure the issue you have?
I think the idea is that in most games designed around a primary PvP mode (strategy/4X games being one such category), the PvE is supposed to just feel like PvP. I.e. the AI is supposed to be a substitute for playing against real human players. And you're not supposed to be able to "learn" real human players. So if you can "learn" the AI, that's a bug.
