Maybe if one actually understood what the phrase "and subject to the jurisdiction" means which is birth & naturalization according to this phrase requires single allegiance either at birth or naturalization, then maybe, just maybe, one wouldn't be so ignorant. Therefore, maybe, one would realize that the 14th does define "natural" born, but the word "natural" was not used because it would have created a redundancy.

And the difference between “natural born” and “naturalized” is?
If naturalized does not encompass everything within the definition of natural born, they must have different meanings.
A reasonable person would recognize that “natural born” is more restrictive than “naturalized.” They are, therefore, not the same.
