If somebody were getting all riled up about tomayto versus tomahto), I'd say that a complaint about policing language was reasonable; that really is purely a language thing. But generally when I hear it somebody is actually opposed to a substantive change but won't come right out and say it.
That always seems weird to me. You'd think somebody so excited about being able to say what they want would, y'know, say what they want.
If you believe that this particular request leads to injustice and misery, feel free to make a case for it. But as far as I can see, this is asking people to think of something in a more useful way.
