Part of the reason as far as I understood for the rhetorical style is to make the silly things jump out as silly to not vest too serious weight in it.
I can’t speak for Eliezer, but my intention is to imply that this is actually as important as the linguistic devices say it is. There is no irony intended here, no buffer of plausible deniability against being thought to be serious.
I can’t make any sense of your last paragraph, and the non-word “epikunfukas” is the least of it.
