@djsundog I also think about the trouble it causes for localization, and also the fact that lots of perfectly reasonable, nice people will hear the word "toot" and go "that's dumb" and not join. You could say "we don't want them anyway" but... these are often people I want, personally.
@darius i'm not sure I agree that nice people go around calling things dumb because of the word toot, but I'm not willing to die on this hill either. I understand the motivations and support for it and still mourn the conditions that make it desirable.
