MEL is written by lawers, whilst airmanship is the "common sense on the air" whe should all have.

Well no it is not! the MMEL is written by the manufacturer engineering of the relevent TC holder and passed on to the NAA of the relevent Country for approval, the Operator then looks through the MMEL and ammends it to suit their particular operation it is then submitted to the Authority of the country of registration for approval, this is very simplified but that is how it is done.
