If you can’t make your point without using the words "leverage," "paradigm," or "ecosystem," you are hiding a weak argument behind expensive vocabulary -

A dull mind can hide behind jargon but a sharp one can use precise terms to compress thought. The problem is less vocabulary itself & more like emptiness wearing it like jewelry.
More dangerously?
Jargon reveals weak listeners just as often as weak thinkers.There are 2 kinds of people who complain about "expensive vocabulary": those who've been deceived by it & those who fear being excluded by it.
