So just to recap here:
You haven’t produced any summary of an argument, or even a real link to one justifying the claim that all academic philosophy is obscure on purpose, in any of your comments.
Instead you’ve linked to a blog post about AI and academic publishing; and a paper from 15 years ago that says social sciences and humanities are plagued by a problem with obscurity.
This isn’t how actual philosophical debate works. But it’s a perfect example of how LW is not a serious intellectual community.
I have made an observation and allowed the intellectual heavyweights persuade much better those who observe otherwise. Seems quite close to what academics call a "citation".
