Applying a negative modifier to opponents is “invoking stereotypes of thieving”...?

That modifier might as well come from outwitting or befuddling, particularly with a text that evokes mystery.

Sounds to me like this choice says more about the actual prejudices of whoever made it, rather than objective parameters.

The issue is using "Gypsies", period, when there's no need to do so.

If you replaced it with "Wanderers" nothing of value is lost.

Using a real group name is thr only reason your comment (and this one) exists.

It literally creates tension where none should be by its very existence. That's problematic.
