I wonder if this is related to their text watermarking. Given how well defined the terminology is in programming, imposing additional constraints (like SynthID) might be expected to give rise to these types of linguistic artifacts. The text needs to be long enough to watermark, and it needs (but fails) to find synonyms in a highly constrained class of words, so it resorts to inventing weird technical language that sounds like if you put buffy-speak through a thesaurus.
