What is wrong with simple English?

Few of the posts in sajha I came across contain words that are rarely used. I don't understand if this is necessary. Communication is a process where the reciever of the message should be able to understand the message completely. Easy to understand message is more important than the degree of sophistication. If you do use these kinds of words and it is your style then it should be ok.. I mean to say that the words flow easily as you type or speak. Some people forcefully insert vocabulary i.e. type document in MS Word and 'Right Click' the word and then choose 'Synonyms'. Using the internet for thesarus is also another option. I do appreciate creative styles of writing, but my only concern is that why medieval and archaic words are used when there are other day-to-day words are available. I am neither a writer myself nor any kind of language expert. Should we use Sanskrit words when we speak Nepali.. adding more sophistication to ourselves.. just a thought...
