Bernd,
I agree that requirement definition is a difficult task to get right. My experiences of systems engineering is that they speak a sufficiently different dialect for there to be a considerable margin for misinterpretation.
Having spent some time with Airbus I found their approach refreshing in as much as we had meetings at which all the stakeholders were supposed to agree the wording, implementation and testing of every requirement. This meant that problems of interpretation could be caught early in the process. I hope they still do this as I, for one, found it useful.
I would expect a badly worded requirement to be subject to the same problems from every diverse team that encountered it as most implementers would have come through the same education process.
