Suggesting a team should alter its "demographic" ("diversity" hiring) for the sake of such a weak association is extreme.




Hm, making the name of a brand you intend to market worldwide something deeply offensive to a huge swath of the world is a pretty poor decision.

I'm not convinced it is "deeply offensive to a huge swath of the world". Or that a diverse team would bring more value.
