Imo the point is prescriptivism requires power or organization, otherwise I'm just an old manby yelling at clouds. That's why "unalived" and things like it are becoming commonplace, they (supposedly) have evolutionary advantage due to censorship from an entity with the power to censor.
And when it comes down to it the symbols people use to represent concepts aren't as important to me as the concepts themselves, so idrc if language evolves. Energy better spent elsewhere usually.
