Ah this will inevitably lead to a lot of struggle.
Not allowing people to violate non-legal “customs of the society” is authoritarian and stifles innovation.
All societies inevitably impose some set of values on the people who live in them. If that's authoritarian then all societies are authoritarian and if you want to be truly free then you should go live alone in a cabin in the middle of nowhere.
There is a reason why I hate both sides. I guess the days of hipsters and Randians are not coming back. True lovers of freedom rarely reproduce making the world more and more authoritarian. The people want to crush each other now.
Just take the renaming thread as an example. There are all kinds of moralists bullying each other around while my attempt to bridge the sides by allowing overloading of existing names leads to nowhere and are entirely ignored.
I think authoritarians need to be separated from freedom lovers since the latter can not afford to live among the former.
