I for one don't want to see politics involved in PL development. However, inclusivity isn't a political issue, it's a human rights issue.
Do I agree with the PR, not exactly. However, I do think we as a community should be accommodating to people Whose use of the English language differs from the standard as long as the meaning is clear. This thread reads like a bunch of old fuddy duddies complaining about immigrants not speaking perfect English at a fast food restaurant. Feel free to ban me from the list if this doesn't meet your standards.
