People like to use Latin for spellcasting because it sounds fancy, but to those that spoke it it was just their language. They would have sounded like an anime character shouting the names of all the moves they use

Giga Terebro Confractus sounds like an incantation that'll summon a giant earth elemental or something, but it's literally just https://youtu.be/rpaTYemj6_I

Latin doesn't have words with double meanings. Every word is unique. So, if demons are popping out of your ass, it's because you spelled it out.

Fucking latin.

Knew there was a reason I hated that class.

Every time I watch a movie with Latin and they're asking a demon or a god something, the whole thing is ruined.

Like, you're just talking with regular words.

"Listen, demon, come here!"

"Listen demon COME HERE!"

The suspension of disbelief is too great a burden in these cases for me.

A bit like the WASD cheats accidentally being the bane of San Andreas speedrunners' existence.

You misunderstand. Its about Will. Speaking normally won't do anything. But speaking ancient dead languages helps drives that Will. Same reason you put up spooky decor and have moody lighting. The ambience helps the Will become manifest!
