Person is lazier - it doesn't even maintain the acronym. Perhaps if you'd suggested Malefactor in the Middle it would have been a more convincing argument?

What we're seeing in this line of discussion is that language is mutable and subjective - and for that reason the author's use of words is a justified as any other.
