Same reason I cringe when people use “as per” where a single “as” or “per” will do (per means as), “thusly” instead of “thus”, and, my personal anti-favorite, “individual” to mean “person”.
It’s a special kind of pretentious language that people use to make them seem more authoritative or accurate/deliberate. It’s manipulative.
