It's elitist mathematical jargon. In all cases dealt with here, it adds no additional meaning compared to "if", beyond what was already obvious from context. Thus, its only purpose is to smugly demonstrate that the author attended their second-year mathematics classes, at the expense of causing confusion for everyone who doesn't have such a background. If you really think you need to convey extra information beyond what "if" gives you, the English language contains plenty of devices for doing so, without resorting to neologisms.
