Seems like stupid rationale IMO.
Do you think artists should be able to name their works?
Why shouldn't scientists also be able to name their works?
That's exactly what I'm saying. They should be able to.
It's hard to communicate with pithy texts only. I misunderstood.
I agree that the renaming effort is an over reaction trying to be more DEI for no apparent benefit.
