Re jargons: I don't think all jargons are created equal.
I'd say that it's possible, and worthwhile, to investigate and make some attempt at classifying jargons with respect to properties like:
* To what extent do layers of jargon correspond to layers of depth of ideas in the field which they describe
* How precisely-defined are they, and how well-founded are the definitions
* Are there clear externally-verifiable criteria which can be used to distinguish valid use from misuse or dishonest, empty, bullshitty use of the jargon.
