One of the text books we used at varsity was a book on genetics by a German professor, in German. I well remember a sentence of over 1 1/2 pages long in smalliish print, set close together, where you basically had to analyze the structure and grammar in order to even vaguely understand what he was saying. Reminded me of some of the Latin stuff we had to translate at high school. I honestly do think that Germans did take their inspiration there, as some of the best translations of, e.g., Virgil (Vergilius), were in German I found, and preferably in gothic print, of course .

It's just way more complicated than it needs to be. I agree that it's not as simple and clean as let's say COBOL for example And I'm sure that to most foreign ears it sounds quite harsh. On the other hand, as with any other language, complexity opens the door to creativity and the freedom to use it in whatever way is required or wanted, be it for endlessly long complicated sentences in scientific books or papers, as Wim mentioned (also any kind of legal text or law) or something subtly beautiful. Also, complexity and beauty is optional... as anyone having to deal with growing up teenagers will likely confirm "Voll am regnen ey!"
