so is it just th sound of the word?

I suppose, with the famous 'longest' (which isnt technically the longest) word in the english language is just a horrible cacophany of prefixes and suffixes, that sounded good to somebody at the time, but noone has used since

Actually, the word and its kin crop up quite regularly in articles regarding the political status of the Church of England.
