Why this word is great

JEJUNOSITY — [Noun] The state of being jejune, characterized by emptiness of intellectual substance or simplistic naïveté. From English jejune (meaning dull or naïve, from Latin iēiūnus, "fasting, meager") + the noun-forming suffix -osity. Unlike profundity, which plumbs abyssal depths, or sophistication, which revels in layered intricacy, jejunosity is a barren plain of thought. It is the tinny echo of an empty lecture hall, the bright primary colors of a child's textbook explaining a world war, or the profound declaration that in the morning light reveals itself to be a platitude—the quiet despair of a mind mistaking its own hunger for a feast.
