It is misguided to ban all homonyms that offend English speakers. How would you even do it in practice?<p>1) The last name of the famous German philosopher Immanuel Kant is pronounced like "cunt". How do they give a philosophy Kant course in the US?<p>2) Why do French girls have to say "bit twiddling" but American girls need to be protected from "Coq"?<p>3) The reason for the rename initiative is apparently a misunderstanding by an Uber driver when hearing the word. I'd humbly suggest not to use the word in a cab, just as you wouldn't say "I'm taking a Kant course in college" in a cab. Context matters.<p>4) It is not up to Americans to eradicate European words in European projects.
