I think their over-reaction is hilarious. Language and UX are important. English words have different meanings to different people in different parts of the world, so it's important to localize to the various regions by using slightly more appropriate words and use congruent iconography with it to convey exactly what would happen with the "least surprise" principle. It's difficult to say what they thought that word meant at the time. For example, in a real estate game: The British "Let" and American "Rent" mean the same thing in their respective countries. However, in America, "Let" means only to allow or suppose, not sign a lease or rental agreement.
