That seems reasonable - if you're trying to create a market for a publicly-available chat-AI, and making a demo freely available for PR/advertising purposes, then the public perception of that demo is critical to your business.
If they had just put up the same model without that attempt to make GPT wear a politically-correct mask, they'd just get another Microsoft Tay event, and only get a buttload of negative publicity for their investment.
For an internal application used for specific practical tasks, sure, focus on making it more powerful; but if you want a demo for general public as a 'pre-sales advertisement'? You bet that political correctness has to be there.
