Regarding the original post, can't we just commute because it makes sense to? I don't think anyone thinks it's offensive unless they are severely over-analyzing some sort of thought game.
This reminds me of some twitter bull crap that happened a year ago when some [hipster]guy thought it was racist for a young white girl in a video game to use "urban speech" because he thought it would offend black people. In actuality it only proved that he was racist to think only black people speak in that manner.
So in conclusion: How dare you! I'm offended you even asked!
