I don’t really care, but if someone wants to do a find replace I won’t stop them. I agree we should stop using terms to demean people (slurs), but my opinion is that terms that have a meaning that is contextually disconnected from the one considered harmful, can have alternatives but don’t have to change.
We are generally okay with a murder to describe a group of crows, despite it having a more violent definition in its typical usage. (Vancouverites love crows, btw)
