In our society I think there’s a belief that most instances where parents try to interfere with dating choices of their children it doesn’t help.
I think people children tend not to want their parents to try to choose their partners, but at least in my social circles, I think it was quite rare for parents to try to impart relationship/dating skills into their children.
People with normal social skills usually don’t speak about AWSS. Using language that produces emotional detachment is typical PUA-thing.
Specialized in group jargon and acronyms show up in a lot of places. One nearby that I can think of.

I’m not criticizing it for being jargon.
A word like “steelmanning” is also jargon. But it’s not in the same category emotional distancing as “AMSS”.
There are also times where intellectual distance is useful. In academia you don’t want emotions to interfere with your reasoning. In the case of PUA, the language allows suppression of approach anxiety. Intellectual distance allows a PUA to run his routine without interferes of his emotions. At the same time prevents real emotional connection to see interactions with the goal of maximizing the amount of k-close, n-closes and f-closes.
