Seems true. This is probably partially an emergent development of vocabulary used to explain sensations that don't typically happen outside of drug (or sometimes meditation) use. I really want it to be more precise but pinning down what we're talking about is really hard.

The lack of precision can really open up communication for people who are still trying to figure out what happened to them or what it is they experienced, it helps to be able to explore language through 'feeling' sense. It also really opens it up to shitty signaling too, though.

If what the language refers to is unclear, then it's easy to be incentivized use it for your own experience even if maybe it doesn't quite fit, because it helps you experience 'resonance' with other people, or to be respected by other people if your experience is really mystical.
