I think there's a distinction between inventing new terms for utilitarian purposes vs ideological and in-group signalling purposes.
If you have groups talking about "expected value" or "dot products", that's different from groups who talk a lot about "privilege" or "the deep state". Even though the latter would claim they're just using jargon between experts, just like the scientists.
