In academia there are whole enclaves devoted to creating and promulgating their own unique jargon. A successfully erected edifice of jargon becomes a discipline. Careers are based on elaborating and building out the edifice. Journals are established to give the impression a body of knowledge exists somewhere behind the jargon. Ever higher barriers to entry are then erected to exclude ever larger numbers of the merely idly curious from discovering the secret truth behind all the jargon: that there is no truth, there is only jargon.
