To put it in perspective for you, the term SJW or Social Justice Warrior is a derogatory term designed to insult it's target applicant. You are essentially using a slang term incorrectly and trying to defend it by using it's literal translation. It has no place in technical writing and makes you look at best a bit silly, and at worst, a willing participant in a silly internet subculture that has its bedrock in juvenile hate and antagonistic behavior from both sides.

I wanted to add that I otherwise really enjoyed the article and agree with the sentiment. The outgoing experience can be the difference between me recommending a service or not. It's about maintaining respect for the user, and not burning the bridge at the very last opportunity.
