 @bf3866a1 While I was at a Very Large Corporation, which was mostly an engineering company, I responded to an email much like that one by asking the VP who had sent it, “Do you really mean to convince every engineer in this company that you are an idiot who is unable to speak coherent English?” I kept my job for most of a decade after that (before retiring), and the buzzwords from various VPs decreased for part of that time.
