I found it hard to make head or tail of the maritime rabbit warren (I call it a warren because I feel like it is in fact the rabbit hole to end all rabbit holes, or at least has many rabbit holes in it) when I first began to encounter this stuff. After about 5 years, I feel like I have a smattering of a grasp of some of the issues, but am also aware that this smattering of knowledge is light years ahead of most folks.

You are not alone, I feel much the same!
