That. My partner (blind) recently met a teacher on a train ride. After a bit of awkward conversation, she told my partner that she is currently trying to find a new word for disabled, together with her class. When my partner answered that she thinks there is no need for that, the teacher totally ignored her opinion and continued to press on. This pretty much confirms your post. Mind you, no disabled people involved. Just a teacher that decided she needs to play language police. Thats systemic patronisation. And the worst thing is, she wouldn't listen to the opinion of a disabled person. She just stubbornly continued on her path of patronisation.
