Despite how attractive USB support is, the 650-page USB 2.0 specification manages to deter even some of the most driven hobbyists (especially if English isn't their primary language). Not only is the USB 2.0 specification long, but it's a prerequisite for the [[XHCI]], [[EHCI]], [[UHCI]], and [[OHCI]] specifications, all of which mustdefine bethe implementedactual forhardware fullOSes USBinterface 3with.0 support (if you only want USB 1.0, you still need UHCI and OHCI). Furthermore, the USB specification defines a plethora of terms, some used interchangeably and seemingly lazily; as a lengthy technical document, it is neither easy nor practical to flip back and forth to clarify a confusing term or concept.
