A bad answer. There is a big difference between
being liberal in what you accept and being conservative
in what you put out. Your "question" (if I didn't know
the context) could be interpreted as an attempt to NOT be
understood for the sake of strife.

promoted world peace.
If we instead scold them for not speaking our language, ....
Of course, it wouldn't hurt to append something like,
" by the way, Ada folks tend to use the terms '....' "
