I acknowledge and understand that many people believe in the existence of souls. But I hope they just say it rather than try to wrap the concepts in layers of jargons.

Again I don’t think the person you were talking to was doing that.
But one of the reasons that people might do that is because on a forum like hacker news they’ll be attacked as a lunatic. Just look at some of the comments on this article. I saw one where someone said that dualism is so ridiculous that it can’t even be considered philosophy.
