I have to disagree with this.
Yes existing terms have meaning, but they also have baggage.
Forming a new term is a reasonably effective way to shed that baggage and attempt to start the cycle all over again.
Seeing a term you’re not as familiar with and needing to look up the definition (whether that’s a local or a global definition) is usually a good thing IME.
