If that is correct than that speaks volumes for the sorry state the
python community would be in. Just imagine there were modules with names
that had racist or homofobic overtones. Would you suggest bringing
light to these things would do nothing but give attention to the
attention seeking?

If bringing such things to light only gives attention to the attention
seeking, that means the community is still soaked in bigotry and I
hope the community is better than that.
