I can't tell if I'm just spinning my wheels at this point, but they're not trying to make themselves feel better, it's about fostering an environment for including those who do care. OpenZFS wants a more diverse user and developer community. Good for them.

And if you think that no professional developers ever break their APIs on a whim, you're either very young, or haven't been paying attention. Google does this all the time across their ecosystem. It's annoying, but you learn to get over it.

If you don't like it, fork it.

"it's about fostering an environment for including those who do care", that's exactly right, and my whole argument is that those who do care are not the ones that are affected by slavery, the people that care about these innocuous things are first-world neocons who haven't had to deal with any real problems in their lives, and my annoyance comes by the fact that people now just don't seem to have the guts to stand up to these trolls; this literally won't help make their community or userbase more diverse, in any case, it introduces confusion because any guides or tutorials around the net that used the term slave are now misleading/deprecated
