I definitely agree with you guys. Spitting out things that are not even understood is only good for reputation. Speaking is for communication. I think if a person speaks a mouthful of words that doesn't make since to the person listening, what's the point of the conversation? It just makes the listener feel stupid, and the speaker look stupid for trying to confuse the listener.
