inhibit the execution of the laws

Can anyone weigh in on whether this was phrased oddly for legal reasons or whether trump’s team is as inept as he is?

IANAL, but I'm guessing it's to bring a sense of legitimacy to an otherwise batshit insane order. I feel like the Fed knows what they're doing is illegal, but phrasing it this way makes it seem sane to their base (who too are batshit insane).
