I think you voice valid concerns, and avoiding language like this is probably the higher ground.

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a general group of programmers who throw around the term "brogrammer" as self-descriptive identity. It's a term that originated as a pejorative, and usually there is an implied obliviousness or lack of self-awareness that accompanies the idea. The people you want to receive the negative "no brogrammer" signal may not get it.

It's not a direct or specific term, and its meaning morphs depending on who wields it. If you want to say "no binge drinking happy hours" or whatever, it might be better to say that directly.

I've definitely used the term myself in the past, but I can see how sloppy usage might alienate people who are decent people.
