Agree to disagree, to me this seems like the euphemism treadmill paired with academic/professional lingo seeping into the public. Still, I'm not going to presume that someone knows more or has a more valid opinion on something because they use a fancy new acronym. And I severely doubt that anyone's mind will be swayed by an acronym either. Fortunately on both of these issues, I doubt many people need to be convinced.

I agree the euphemism treadmill is a thing, but based on events here in the U.S. over the last several years I think we could use much more "academic/professional lingo seeping into the public" if by 'lingo' we mean impartial, reasoned takes on things.
