I've read about it in the past in various places and checked out the meaning. And always promptly forgotten it. Somebody mentioned it on the dope a few weeks back and I had to look it up again. I think it's because it's a word that is only used in highly specific circumstances. I've never heard it used in conversation, news media or even academic papers. I'm not lacking for either education or vocabulary, it's just a little-used word and I wouldn't expect Joe Bloggs to understand what it means.
