Fortunately, you don't have to please everyone.

You can decide to privilege some while insulting others, or use the
name that one major author begs for and the other doesn't object to.

Why would you choose to insult us and bring us harm, when the
alternative won't bring harm to anyone and most people don't care one
way or another?
