there are a lot of very pretentious authors who desperately need to clear up their language and get over themselves

however, there are many more readers who believe that anything longer than five sentences or that has words with more than four syllables is hegel tier "word salad," and that is a much bigger problem than some random self important blowhard professors and journalists
