It's probably just an attempt to not alienate people who have no idea what a CNC machine is. I'm sure there are lots of people who have no idea how things are made and what tools play a part.

I agree, though, I would've educated my readers on how ubiquitous such a machine is in manufacturing, rather than dumbing it down and making it sound like Germany is shipping rare weapon-building machines to Russia.
