Sure!
Sorry I hurt your sensibilities/ideas with that particular word.
I never heard those talks before, nor even knew about the issue of how

I have no problem calling them whatever you'd like, since the issue is
obviously very important to you. Please, share with me your preferred
term and I'll use it from now on. :)
Best...
PD: please keep in mind that I'm not a native English speaker, in case
something seems odd in my writing.
