Of course, but getting basic understanding for free is a pretty big
thing. Further, you can "speed read" COBOL in a way that doesn't work
for any other computer language. Once a program has been written it goes
into maintenance, and much of most maintenance efforts is just finding
the right places to make the changes, which is MUCH easier in COBOL than
in other computer languages.
No. That depends in which language you are most fluent,
and what kind of abstractions you use in thinking.
If you were right, you could express the Schroedinger
Equation in plain English and make it more understandable
that way.
