@cygnoir to explain a little bit more about what no one asked for, I had seen this as prescription-ist nonsense. I heard something like "You must use these words!" instead of what I’ve understood to actually be the case, which is a polite request to respect the social reality in which one finds oneself, thank you.

So obvious.

Think about it. You're in France; would you explain to Pierre that he is mistaken and his name is biologically Peter, or that we are still going to say Peter because French-ness is debatable?

Does that help one see how bat shit crazy resistance to this is?
