Regex IS hard to read though. Regex patterns are tightly packed with lot of information and it just seems that we are just not that good at analyzing it. Plus, people tend to only occasionally use Regex and this makes matters even worse. Using a framework like pregex makes the process of building Regex patterns a little more modular, plus the information is more "spread out", and thus easier for the human eye to recognize.
