(Peer) review is the problem. Everyone's working hard to sound as intelligent and rigorous as possible, which often means committing literary atrocities. I'm writing my master thesis right now with passive voice and everything. Just because that's the way it should be done, apparently.
I've jokingly considered exchanging "time" with "temporal dimension main anthropoperceptory vector". It does sound more impressive, doesn't it? It's such a masquerade.
