It's been said that if you want your news broadcast, news web post, or social media post to be read you have to write it at the fifth grade level (American English equivalents here). Write at too high a language, too many big words, etc, people won't read as it's too hard. That's the problem with "middle-school is" language, if no one uses it most ownt learn it. It's tends to keep the vocabulary small, or at least that's the idea behind a lot of this in English language spaces, I can see the same argument for others.
