It seems like they use obscure language (non-optimal, excess) on purpose to try to somehow connect global warming into the obvious fact that a lot of people die in cold temperatures if they don't have a warm shelter, and sometimes people die in hot temperatures if they don't drink enough. And the article is full of global warming fear mongering, although they found that temp-related mortality has decreased from 2000 to 2019.

What makes that obscure language for an academic paper?

Why is using obscure language a tactic for linking an idea to global warming?

What claims do you feel are fear mongering?

Well, to me it reads as "climate change causes people to die", although the opposite is true and their own results show that. It's obvious because people die overwhelmingly from cold compared to heat.

You know climate change isn't just places getting hotter, right?
