It’s communication to the public, not an official paper. When talking to the public, you meet them on their level. You knew what it meant, so mission accomplished.

It’s in the vernacular now. You only notice it because you’re older than the term. For a Zoomer or younger Millennial, it won’t stand out so much.

I’m an older millennial who generally dislikes new words like that but this is the one that I fully accept. It’s just a good word, you don’t need any prior knowledge the understand it either, it just works.
