As a caution against the "not invented here" mentality ... people who
are
used to rolling their own solutions from scratch have to be careful
that
they do not fall into "can I improve this design?" mode when learning
the pattern language in common use.

So, in other words, interpret it directly in terms of what it
explicitly
says, rather than trying to read between the lines.
