I don’t use “extra words”. I use exactly the words I want to convey a specific feel. I can be laconic when I need to.
Begrudgingly, you have a point that I probably use too many “6 dollar words.” But it isn’t to wield some stupid linguistic cudgel over anyone. I like coming across words I don’t know, it makes me learn new ones. and words have specific meanings, so using them in the correct sense just seems natural.
Seriously I’m not trying to Tolkien anyone into oblivion. But I can’t always be Hemingway.

The manner in which you argue the point proves the point.
Good day Sir.
