-Again, a comparison to the _tú_/_usted_ distinction is instructive. It's one thing to advocate for collapsing the distinction and just settling on one second-person singular pronoun for the Spanish language. It's quite another thing altogether to _simultaneously_ try to prevent a speaker from using _tú_ to signal disrespect towards a social superior (on the stated rationale that the _tú_/_usted_ distinction is dumb and shouldn't exist), while _at the same time_ refusing to entertain or address the speaker's arguments for _why_ they think their interlocutor is unworthy of the deference that would be implied by _usted_ (because such reasons are "unspeakable" for political reasons).

That's just psychologically abusive.
