Autism and formal speech

I have been told that I am quite pedantic and I speak formally a lot of the time. I think there are 4 main reasons for this:

Detail focused processing style- it is really important for me to be precise with what I say to avoid misunderstandings
Large vocabulary
Provides structure for interaction
Love of language

What do you think? Do you speak formally?

I am just interested in other people’s opinions and whether formality is important to you.

I've been told that to during my assessment and also read about it during my own research, my opinion is yes I think it could be linked because when we speak we can feel like people might not understand us so we try our best to be as precise as possible. Then at the same time there are plenty of people who are not on the spectrum who are just as careful and precise with their words as we would be. Perhaps if you're on the spectrum you're just more likely to be that kind of person.
