“...buildable...”? Why do people make words up so often these days? It is a failure of education?

I’m from Louisiana and we’ve been making up words since forever. We fabrispeak as necessary to get the job done.
If I’ve used it. It’s now a word.

By the way, “buildable” is in Mirriam Websters dictionary.

It’s been a word since at least 1855.
So, yeah, where did you go to school?
