Talking of TMC - it still confuses me

I have a Trafficmaster Freeway unit as well as TMC and the spoken warnings are far more intuitive.

By the time I have tried to work out what the TMC message is telling me, glancing from message to road to message to road it has usually timed out.

A typical spoken message from my Freeway will be:

"You are on the M25, junction 12 clockwise, stationary traffic for 6 miles between junctions 15 and 17, expect 25 minutes delay".

Now that is clear as day - why couldn't they have given the TMC a similar voice warning?
