How many people feel uncomfortable with this terminology and who are they? What about the people who feel uncomfortable with the new terminology instead (the majority)?

The majority don't really care and have other things to worry about. Then there's a few who care and the only explanation I have for that is that they're either racists or over-sensitively engaged with some political narrative.

I mean, really, I've asked a number of my friends who aren't too politically inclined and their reaction is a shrug. They don't really get it but they don't care to figure out why and they don't care either way because they've got stuff to do.

Shows how little experience you have with asking people why they disagree with these changes, if you shrug off rationalism as racism.
