Yes, the word appears when it's needed and accepted because it describes it the best, rolls of the tongue and more importantly needed.
Otherwise inventors pushing it, remind me of poets who raise their voice and repeat their poem to anybody in the hopes, that people will like it against all the evidence to the contrary.
