This is too vague. Define what "diversity reasons" are and elaborate your 
point. Referring to some online discussions is not a way for making a serious 
argument. Make a point at least (i.e. define the term, add pro/contra arguments 
and explain why you've taken your decision). Your political standpoint is your 
political standpoint and it's not my business. However, making these changes 
without giving reasons and arguments for them is a problem.

Let me ask:

Are these "diversity reasons" really reasons? What I've heard seen so far 
regarding "diversity reasons, ..." had little to nothing to do with rational 
thinking or argumentation. Is it really necessary to pollute Python code base 
with SJW ideology/terminology? What comes next?

Ad absurdum: If I find anything associated with something unpleasant to me in 
Python code or something which can be considered as e.g. "cultural 
appropriation", I'm free to change it for diversity reason?
