He clearly made it up during the interview.

I admit I spent more time right clicking -> 'search the web' for some of the words he used. Incredible vocabulary.. I have to use 'intellection' soon, I've needed to use a word like that before but couldn't find it.

I obviously need to pay more attention. Thank you very much.

Cheers!

'intellection' has a more playful connotation, especially as the author interviewed used it, because it's needlessly academic and sounds made up
