For whatever reason this reminded me of culture bound syndromes, illnesses which only occur within certain cultures thought to be caused by unique stresses and beliefs found only within that culture.

They aren't sending their best.

Have you tried mixing in a 1/4 cup of non-toxic glue?

In their recent Presidential Immunity ruling there was a long response by Clarence Thomas that included a section questioning the legality of Jack Smith's appointment. Which is the same reasoning Cannon gives in her ruling.

The dissenting opinion in their recent Chevron Deference ruling criticises Thomas and others for using this tactics repeatedly to overturn laws they don't like. They write opinions about one thing but include a bunch of questions about something only tangentially related. Then they'll suddenly take up a case that seems to centre exactly around that question they had. A case that was only filed after the initial ruling.

Cannon using Thomas' words is no mistake. It's the way these judges have been legislating from the bench.

Because pay and promotions are in no way tied to your effort or productivity?

It's normal for people to change how they speak based on the audience they're speaking to. Here's an interesting video focusing on "gay voice" but notes it's not just a thing gay men do. Everyone does it. The thing is, it's consistent, not random. If the person at your work isn't changing their voice based on who they're talking to, but randomly, they're just being weird.
