Think you should forget about NOTAMs and go back to basic airmanship.
NOTAMs by there very definition are relevant information.
There is no small print, it's all the same size.
If you can't take the time to read through several lines of information, some of which might have a serious effect on your proposed flight, you probably shouldn't bother continuing to the flightdeck.
So yes, you are the only dummy who can't sort the chaf(f) from the wheat.......
So you haven't seen the longer international flights then?
You can very easily have 20 - 30 pages of notams, and to go through them all to determine what is relevent and what is not would take literally hours.
It's just not practical.
