I don't think he intended to antagonise anybody when writing that book. The fact that he accidentally did so is because some people are very oversensitive -- and those people deserve to get offended, frankly.
I guess nobody's getting death threats for still saying "blacklist" or "quantum supremacy", but people who are oversensitive enough to care deserve to get offended.
That said, I don't think we should encourage causing people offense. It's worth being aware that a person may get offended by harmless things because of mental illnesses like psychosis, so it's worth being sensitive to that.
