I find no google entry for FBI agent signatory John T Slack. Not unheard of, but a bit unusual.

All legal language is specific. They use certain terms, always, for certain things. There is specific language they use for these type of acts. But I don't know precisely what that language is. The point is, they are not making these words up, about 80% of the thing writes itself, only the details vary. They just fill in the specifics, but the general form is a template - unchanging. Slightly less room to maneuver than a journalist writing a news story, to make a side point.
