So far as I can see, the only one who is doing the sneering is you. Do you really imagine that I would choose to interview Stallman - and one in which I kept my own interventions to a minimum -- if I had any trouble with his views?
Stallman's term is undoubtedly more accurate, but, the fact remains that not everyone, even on Linux.com, will be familiar with it. So I provide both, hoping that by using the most generally accepted phrase, people will know what I'm talking about, and that by using Stallman's that people will get his point instead of puzzling over it.
That's it. No hidden attacks, just an attempt at clarity. Sorry to disappoint to you.
