I call it "reading with my eyes but not my brain", but I'm one of those weirdos who doesn't think you need to turn every god damned niche thing into a new word or initialism just to gatekeep against those who didn't know the new word just made up.

how exactly do you think jargon happens "bro"?
Because it's easier to refer to something with a single word or abbreviation than to have to explain the entire concept?
It's more slang than jargon either way.
Slang is informal language, jargon is a specialized term. This post is asking for jargon. Slang is designed to keep people out of a social in-group, jargon is designed to keep people out of an intellectual in-group.
