"I feel like this new language is not market." Really? This new language makes you feel things? Is this caused by women in the workplace? Compare these sentences and judge for yourself which one is most effete.

"I feel like this new language is not market."

"I think this new language is not market."

"This new language is not market."

Using “think” vs. just asserting something (the difference between your second and third examples) conveys a degree of uncertainty. Using “feel” indicates your view that the question has a subjective element that could cause two reasonable people to come to opposite outcomes.
