For the same reason the excuse of a white character being named Mitsimu Hashimori is that it’s just a title being passed down is something people might find offensive.
I think artists can make whatever they want (within the bounds of the law) and that it’s up to the consumers to decide whether they like it or not with their wallets.

It is legal to make and distribute a movie where a guy just yells the N-word for 90 minutes. I assume you would find that offensive. Most people would.
Right, so I wouldn’t watch it or give them money, and I’m sure you and most other people wouldn’t either. But if that person wants to make it, more power to them.
It’s been about that the entire thread. The OP image is about casting choices.

No one ever said anything about what people can or can not do.
