Think of it more like conforming to a certain communication standard, specific to the academic field. The language needs to be concise, precise, and correct use of terminology to avoid as much ambiguity as possible. Colloquial form of writing is often open to interpretation and may not be understood by international readers (for example), as cultural norms are different. Academic and technical communication on aims to eliminate these barriers.
