I don't know that we can rely on obscurity forever.

But mostly I'm advising him not to use that phrasing anywhere else.

Don't disagree. I don't even recommend he use it here, assuming a suitable alternative is available. In part because it is usually the incorrect word to use for the practice being attempted. For most part "only slightly high IQ people" are the ones being referred to.
