On this subject: there's a conversation pattern that goes like this: A: "Please change terminology X to Y because X is ethically bad, and Y is clearer anyway." B: "I disagree about Y being clearer." A: "You're an evil partisan of ethical-problem-in-question." I've seen this far too often and I think it's terrible. I strongly recommend anyone who is advocating a terminology change to either leave out the "and Y is clearer anyway" part, or be willing to discuss that part independently of the ethical part.
