I realize that the purpose of the terms "serve a demand" if legal
globedey-glook phrased to pompously instill in the reader some feeling of the
majesty and due regard for the process (etc), but in reality it is just pompous
for "send a letter requesting" is it not?

I don't know about that.  Most definitions of "pompous" don't include the implied
phrase "or end up in a cell on a contempt citation".

Feel free to be the test case to find out if a demand under the CLOUD act can
result in a US contempt citation. :)
