Because he thinks it makes him sound intelligent
Like the real depth and vastness of the real information and meaning is too deep to put into words- or at least words that 'lesser' intellects could understand, so he adapts a term from the standard lexicon that he does not really understand and then puts it in scare quotes.

Are those 'Sharks'? 'Sharks' with 'laser beams' on their head?!
