Yeah, I agree with your overall point. In general, a sign of mediocrity in any field is someone who over-uses jargon in any field. As much as I hear people throw around "design pattern" terminology, I also see overkill on the now-en-vogue topic of "useability", with phrases such as "use case" being applied at any and every possible opportunity.
